ZitatNEW ORLEANS, La. (KEYE) – A high school in Louisiana has turned down a free lunch offered to teachers from Chick-fil-A due to the company's stance on the LGBTQ community.
WWL-TV reports Lusher High School's principal, Dr. Steven Corbett, Chick-fil-A's vaues do not align with the school's.
"Out of respect to our LGBTQ staff, we have chosen to not serve Chick-Fil-A at an employee lunch. The #1 rule at Lusher is to 'Be Kind' and we live this motto every day," Corbett told WWL-TV. "Chick-Fil-A has been politically outspoken about its views, and we feel it is not part of Lusher’s culture of kindness and community.”
The meal was being provided by the College Football Playoff Foundation. The organization will instead bring the teachers food from another restaurant.
