Academy Di Capelli - I was withdrawn and thrown out by owner

I had gone to the supervisor and owner with some issues about how I felt I was being discriminated against and there was favoritism also that the teacher wasn’t teaching things we need to learn diverse things. We had a meeting they dismissed everything I said. Saying it wasn’t true or I didn’t know if another student got in trouble or they didn’t see it they sent me withdrawal for after the meeting I didn’t withdraw I kept asking them about it the one owner said I was withdrawn the other said no so I went to school the next day they told me I had to wait for the owner after I was already there I said I was going to go to theory I was told no that I couldn’t punch in my account was frozen I punched in anyway waited in my car went in was told I was disrespectful they weren’t going to have someone there making accusations at there teacher that I wasn’t the right fit . That they just wanted me gone . Asked if I was the attorney for the Caucasian people. I was sworn at told I couldn’t do this with my disability by the teacher and owner I should find something else. Told me to get the [censored] out. Called the police and humiliated me. Just because I went to try to go to school. I was also told what’s the problem no other school will take you. It will not let me add videos but I have them if needed

I just looked at financial assistance and they have withdrawn over 6,000 from my account the day after I was told I was withdrawn by them . I have written to the financial aid people. I was told by the owner Michelle Kelley they were going to zero my account out and I have it on video. Just to get rid of me . Thats fraud if they are taking that money. I haven’t been allowed back there since 12/14/23 .

Academy Di Capelli - Being charged for not being taught what I should be taught and prejudice behavior in the school

I am a student at this school and I had a few issues with a teacher miss Maria one where she told me I was going to do corn rolls and she didn’t care that’s what we were doing after I said I couldn’t that my hand and fingers were swollen and hurt that I had tried and tried the week prior and all weekend. This was Dec 7th I left that day upset and went to the walk in and my dr wrote me out for 3 days I I have a disability due to this disability there are things I can’t do. Then the next week on Thursday the 14th after my dr said I can’t braid and put me on light duty she told me my sanitation was trash again I said I can’t do that it’s to heavy and I can’t pull and bring that downstairs. I was written up I left very upset not feeling that my disability was taken seriously. I then had a meeting with the owner the supervisor and miss maria and I said I felt prejudice and favoritism going on that I felt that I was being singled out that I wasn’t being taken seriously that they weren’t teaching us anything but nope I was just wrong they didn’t believe me they even caught her saying she didn’t know where certain students were. That I was yelled at for sitting down to do braids that one day in back of another student who was sitting on a table doing a perm. But I couldn’t sit. But I’m disabled. She acted like she said I didn’t have to finish something because of my hand but she told another student they didn’t either there wasn’t enough time. She was more concerned with someone else’s hearing than me being in pain. They brought about student in the office for saying something that wasn’t even racial but said it was but they are treating us differently because of our race and because of my disability. But I’m being told that’s not possible. This is precisely what’s wrong with today’s society. It can’t be the other way around. I’m not even being taught things that are necessary for me to learn. I shouldn’t have to come here. Now I have gotten a withdrawal letter dated for the 14th saying I owe around 6, 000 for what. They are ripping people off and the government. That kit is only worth about 100 to 150 I looked up kits a real kits with hot tools is about 400$ then adding extra charges I never withdrew so they are kicking me out because I said what was really going on. And a teacher shouldn’t be doing her hair sitting in the other room flirting with students and just not helping and saying she can’t deal with this. oh and the withdrawal is on the 14 but the meeting was on the 15 and they asked the government for money on the 15th for my education loan. What education?

Claimed loss: The loan money and grant money time I have lost

Desired outcome: All money returned
