Gazette.Net: Former CEO alleges discrimination in lawsuit against Landon School: A $2 million wrongful termination lawsuit against the Landon School in Bethesda alleges that headmaster David Armstrong ignored reports that supervisors were discriminating against Hispanic employees.
Timothy Harrison, former chief financial officer and chief operating officer of the school, filed the suit Thursday in Montgomery County Circuit Court.
"The discrimination has been going on for 18 years," Harrison said. "It has to stop. I brought it to the attention of the headmaster who chose to do nothing about it."
Five Hispanic employees filed declarations with the Montgomery County Office of Human Rights on May 17, alleging discrimination by the building and grounds supervisor, and grounds foreman. They often get together to make fun of their workers in front of them, and called their workers ethnic slurs, according to the declarations.
