Will and Jada Pinkett Smith have recently fired Jacqueline Olivier of their New Village Academy School in Calabasas Ca. The reported reason for the dismissal stems from Olivier's refusal to go along with the L. Ron Hubbard Study Tech that the school uses in its curriculum. Smart lady.
Jacqueline was fired over the PHONE by Jada and was told that they decided to go in another direction. Jacqueline's position commanded a $200,000 a year salary, one would think that Jada would have the common decency to at least talk to her in person.
So what different direction are the Smith's talking about? The Scientology direction, that's what. The Smiths hired a woman by the name of Piano Foster, who just so happens, to be, you guessed it, a Scientologist. So now you might wonder how many Scientologists does that make on their school staff? Foster is listed in the Scientology data base as a "celebrity". We were unable to find out much of anything as far as Piano's education other than she took Hubbard's Study Manual course back in 2005. Seems to be enough credentials all would need to be the head of school, right?
Here's what RadarOnline is reporting:
Jacqueline Olivier - the woman the famous husband and wife enlisted to set up their Calabasas campus - was axed from her $200,000 a year position via a telephone call from the Matrix actress."Jada phoned Jacqueline and told her that they had 'decided to go in another direction' with the school,” an insider told RadarOnline.com. “As head of the campus her position was becoming untenable as she did not agree with Study Tech and felt uncomfortable with it.” Olivier “thrashed-out” a severance package with the couple and “it’s understood that she signed a confidentiality agreement with regard to her time at the school.”
When contacted by RadarOnline.com, Foster confirmed: "I officially took over on July 1, 2009, and I'm looking forward to the challenge. I've been working in education for the past 20 years at various public and charter schools so I feel I'm ready for the job."
RadarOnline has followed up with some additional information in a new article about Piano Foster's Scientology connections:
I’ve been working in education for the past 20 years at various public and charter schools so I feel I’m ready for the job.”It seems one of Foster’s other possible qualifications stems from her knowledge of and participation in Scientology. Foster completed a Scientology Basic Study Manual course in 2005 and her name appears on an official Scientology list.
RadarOnline.com contacted The California Department of Education with regard to the school’s current status. From the beginning, the school has denied any affiliation to any religion, calling the institution nondenominational.
