Kanye West is publicly asking his ex wife Kim Kardashian to remove his children from their private school.
In a caption he writes
“At this point, everybody knows what ‘the system’ is code word for. I was removed from my dad by the system, and the system removed me from my children. When the system drafts athletes, they avoid working with those who have their father in their [lives] because they are harder to manipulate. My two oldest know they daddy.”
According to Rap-Up it is worth mentioning that Sierra Canyon School has notable alumni, including Kylie and Kendall Jenner, Willow Smith, and LeBron James’ sons, Bronny and Bryce.
However, Ye’s criticism of the institution is not new.
During a 2022 interview with Tucker Carlson, the Chicago native mentioned wanting his eldest children to attend Donda Academy instead of Sierra Canyon School.
“What they do is take all of the celebrities [kids] — the actors, the basketball players — and they throw them in this one school, and they indoctrinate the kids,” he explained. “My kids are going to a school that teaches Black kids a complicated Kwanzaa… They don’t teach even Christmas itself.” Following Ye’s public denouncement, reports indicated that Kardashian increased security measures at the establishment.
Ye seemingly referred to Sierra Canyon School on “CARNIVAL,” which came out earlier this month as a part of VULTURES 1. On the track, he spat, “This for what they did to Chris, they can’t do s**t with this/ Got my kids in a fake school, we ain’t…”
Kim Kardashian’s response
According to Page Six Kim K is “frustrated” and wants her ex-husband Kanye West to keep the issues he has about their four minor children off social media.
A source close to the situation tells Page Six that the Skims founder enrolled their children — North, 10, Saint, 8, Chicago, 6, and Psalm, 4 — at the Sierra Canyon private school in Los Angeles because it’s a “fantastic school” and their kids need “consistency” among their friends, teachers and community.
“Kim has never kept the kids from their dad,” the insider says, adding that the “Donda” rapper is “hardly around” and can go months without seeing his kids.
Due to the nomadic lifestyle West, 46, has been living with his wife, Bianca Censori, the source tells us that the children would have to be pulled out of school and travel via plane to be with their father wherever he is overseas.
“[West] does not have a consistent home base, which emphasizes the importance of consistency for the kids in LA where they live. She will always stand firm on what is best for them,” the insider said.
As far as the kids’ education goes, the source tells us that the Grammy winner believes the kids should be placed with “unaccredited teachers” in his “unaccredited Donda school, which has been riddled with lawsuits.”
The insider notes that Kardashian, 43, previously allowed the children to attend Donda for after-school activities but stopped once the school shut down.
“Kanye doesn’t believe in standardized education in general and has told his kids that going to school is not necessary,”
the source adds.
