The Beverly Hills Unified School District (BHUSD) is defending against a lawsuit filed by a former tennis coach alleging that the school’s athletic director engaged in sexual harassment, discrimination, retaliation and wrongful termination. It is one of several claims currently underway against the district.
On Nov. 1, 2024, Robbin Cafagna, who served as an assistant and head coach of middle and high school tennis between June 2021 and June 2023, filed suit in Los Angeles Superior Court alleging that Tim Ellis, the district’s executive director of athletics, subjected her to ongoing harassment and retaliation.
