Jennifer Eller, who taught in Prince George's County, alleged she was discriminated against as a transgender woman. She hopes her settlement will help others.
In Maryland, the settlement came ahead of a trial that had been slated to begin Sept. 28. A settlement order, signed by U.S. District Judge Theodore D. Chuang, dismissed the case Sept. 19 after attorneys for Eller and the Prince George’s school system advised the court that they had reached an agreement.Eller, 45, had reported harassment starting in 2011, when she came out to her principal and began living more openly as a woman while teaching English at Kenmoor Middle School in Landover.
In August 2012, a Friendly student and his friends encountered her in a parking lot and threatened to rape Eller and make her “their girlfriend,” the document said. Eller said she reported the threat but it appeared to go nowhere. The student denied it, and Eller was told there was nothing the administration could do, the complaint alleged.
