Donda Academy had no windows because Kanye West opted against glasses.
Rapper Kanye West is not a fan of classes and that is one major reason why his Donda Academy didn’t have any classes according to an ex-teacher.
Billboard reports that a new lawsuit was filed on Thursday by the academy’s former gym teacher. Isaiah Meadows alleges that he was unjustly fired after bringing out concerns about inconsistent pay and serious health and safety issues.
Situated in Simi Valley, California, Donda Academy is a Christian private school for pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and was founded by Ye in 2022.
Wage rules, wrongful termination, and improper classification were some of the main charges brought against the rapper who is deemed to have breached the contract and that of California labor laws.
Isaiah Meadows claims the main cause of this anomaly was the exposure to bare windows instead of that glasses.
“In the middle of the main classroom, a skylight was left without glass inevitably allowing rain to fall directly inside, where water would soak into the floor, which would lead to a moldy smell for the next few days,” his lawyers wrote. “The skylight was intentionally without glass because WEST expressed that he did not like glass.”
Cecilia Hailey and Chekarey Byers — who are both Black women also claimed the kids were exposed to a variety of improper habits which included safety and health code violations.
The rapper and his legal team denied all allegations saying.
“The truth is, Ye has nothing to do with Donda’s policies, practices, and procedures relating to employee pay and wage statements. Surely, Plaintiffs know that,” the documents read.
“But — as unfortunately is commonly the case for Ye, a famous artist and businessperson — in the present action, Plaintiffs have haphazardly tossed a meritless and barebones guilt-by-association theory into their complaint to garner press attention and the resulting settlement pressure that comes with it.”
They again added: “Plaintiffs misleadingly depict the Donda Academy as a dystopian institution designed to satisfy Ye’s idiosyncrasies. None of it is true and the allegations do a disservice to the Donda Academy’s current staff and students and their parents who will attest to their positive experience as this case proceeds.”
