If the school was not accredited how did it open in the first place ? and why close it now? without notice to the families and students ? It was open for almost 2 years with events planned tournaments scheduled and opportunities there were no crimes committed no arrests were made https://t.co/qGK4x0EtVT

ESPN has since put into question their own report stating that students are being encouraged to return to school.
Besides the education aspect, Donda Academy has (had?) a stacked basketball team with top recruits and they now face an uncertain future.Update: Another email obtained by TMZ and signed "Parents of Donda" called for students to return to the academy Thursday, leaving the status of the school in some doubt.
