Former Donda Academy Teachers Reveal The School Has Uniquely ‘Unsafe’ Rules In Wrongful Termination And Discrimination Lawsuit

A lawsuit against Donda Academy by two former teachers claims to reveal how the elite private Christian school is being run. On April 6, a lawyer representing the teachers compared the operation of Donda Academy to the personal life of Kanye West: “bad.”

A lawsuit filed

 in Los Angeles County Superior Court alleges that two teachers were wrongfully terminated and discriminated against by Ye, NBC News reported.

Donda Academy serves sushi, and only sushi, for lunch, and there are no classes on the second floor.

Other rules includes the following: no crossword puzzles, no jewelry, no color, or artwork on the walls; lunch and recess held indoors and are held at the same time; and no chemical-based cleaners, teachers can only use “acid water.”

Alleged rules and phobias like these are why the two former teachers, a mother-daughter duo, Cecilia Hailey and Chekarey Byers, were fired last month. They were fired after complaining about the allegedly unsafe conditions and racial discrimination they endured in their short time there.

“Kanye West is clearly as bad at running a school as he is at managing his own personal and professional life, enabling an unsafe and illegal school environment for students that also discriminated against the plaintiffs based on their race,” said the plaintiffs’ attorney Ron Zambrano. “These egregious violations at Donda Academy are just another example of West’s unusual behavior, and our clients just won’t stand for it, no matter his celebrity status. Kanye needs to realize his genius is in creating music, not in school administration.”

Hailey was hired as a teacher at Donda in November 2022 before her daughter, Byers, began teaching there in January 2023, Insider reported.

“[These are] multiple health and safety violations, as well as unlawful educational practices at Donda Academy,” the suit read.

Both teachers, like Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, are Black. However, given Ye’s recent atrocities such as supporting a “White Lives Matter” T-shirt, his inaccuracies regarding George Floyd’s “drug overdose,” and his anti-Semitic, anti-Black comments, the disgraced former billionaire’s remarks have come back to haunt him.

At the height of his anti-Semitic frenzy, the school in Simi Valley, Calif., was temporarily closed, and his multibillion-dollar contract with his company, Yeezy, and Adidas was terminated in 2022 – though that, too, is being reinstated, as the German clothing giant can’t afford to have unsold stockpiles of Yeezy-branded shoes amounting to $537 million.
