Principal Sued for Threatening to Kill Gay Couple’s Son
WDJT-TV.In the spring of 2019, Kalumbula allegedly locked the child in a dark room for more than an hour, and threatened to kill him if he told anyone about it. While the harassment did not continue while schools were closed for in-person classes during the COVID-19 pandemic, in March 2021, just a month before schools reopened, Kalumbula was named acting principal.Shortly after returning to school, the gay couple’s son was — once again — bullied by other students for having gay parents. When their son reacted angrily, Kalumbula allegedly reprimanded the child for his reaction, telling him that most people believe it’s wrong to be gay, and that he had been raised to believe that gay people are “evil” and will “burn in hell.”In September 2021, the new full-time principal at the Milwaukee French Immersion School told Kalumbula that the parents had contacted her with concerns.
