Denver Public Schools bans Robert F. Smith STEAM Academy co-founder Brandon Pryor from school properties. MicahSmith_TV reports.
DENVER – One week after Denver Public Schools officials dismissed Robert F. Smith STEAM Academy Co-Founder Brandon Pryor from his volunteer and coach position at the school, Pryor said the district is retaliating against him for publicly highlighting equity issues within the school district.
Pryor said as a co-founder, he envisioned a space where Black students would feel safe and free to express themselves. But Pryor said the school building lacks a kitchen, library, and athletic space, stopping the school from reaching its goal.On Oct. 18, the district issued a letter to Pryor notifying him of his dismissal and also banning him from school property, with the exception of his child’s school.
On October 24, 2020, during a phone call between Pryor and a Regional Instructional Superintendent Pryor, the district alleges Pryor said:"We need to be at the table for EVERYTHING…Period. And I am not asking, so we are clear. Including the curriculum!!! Nothing is to be turned in for review without me seeing it! Is that clear?"
The district included paperwork outlining past crimes Pryor was accused of and a mugshot Pryor said was from 2002.
