Last week, Harpeth Hall announced a new 'Gender Diversity Philosophy,' which allowed anyone who identified as female to apply to the school
An elite all-girls school in Nashville has paused implementation of a policy allowing applications from anyone who identifies as female after backlash from the community.
Last week, in an email to parents, Harpeth Hall School announced a new "Gender Diversity Philosophy," explaining a new admissions policy that would allow "any student who identifies as a girl" to apply to the school.
"We recognize that this philosophy elicited strong reactions of support and opposition beyond our expectations," the school said in an email to the community obtained by Fox News Digital. "We care deeply about your feedback and we have heard you."
"Based on the response from our school and community, the Harpeth Hall Board of Trustees is choosing to pause the adoption of the philosophy in order to engage a wider audience in continued discussion," the letter continued.
The letter added that the school does not want to make changes to its longstanding admission practices and continues to "serve girls and young women."
Other all-girls institutions have taken similar steps, allowing biological males who identify as female to apply to the school.
In 2016, Barnard College, an all-women’s college in New York City, implemented a policy to "consider for admission those applicants who consistently live and identify as women, regardless of the gender assigned to them at birth." The decision made Barnard the last of the traditional Seven Sisters colleges to update their admissions policies.

“for quarters...”
Damn, went to the wrong high school.
She was a heinous blob.
Boys in girl clothes does not make you a girl....period.
“She was a heinous blob.”
Ok, maybe Laz would still take her, but I’m done.
Not even Laz would...
Yeah, but mentally they’re still guys. If they really want to cross over, get the chop.
Yah, but you had money for lunch.
Right! Get the chop or you are nothing but a chemed up transvestite. Sanity sets in, so very few male to female fakers get The Chop. No more than 5% is my guess.
“Not even Laz would...”
Crap, she must have been bad. I guess the 25 cent fee should have been a giveaway.
>> My high school was free
Did your parents pay state, local, property taxes?
A rough estimate... if 1 out of 4 households have 2 children in K-12, and each house through annual taxation contributes $5k each... that amounts to $10k for each K-12 child.
There are affluent towns where that annual tax “contribution” is easily doubled/tripled.
Ladybugs with the late Rodney Dangerfield and late Jonathan Brandis, Brandis was the “ringer” Rodney had in drag to help the all girls team.
I used to live about a mile away off tyne and before that a block away on estes rd and I walked and jogged on the campus
The acreage and buildings is prolly at least 250 million value
Used to board I think it’s been around since 70 years
The enrollment includes many billionaire and mid 9 figure net worth Nashville clans
Five million is trifle to these folks
I assume the howl got folks attention even though Nashville proper is a lost Cause to extreme leftism Belle Meade and green hills and hillwood and nearby hillwood still have some Sense amongst some
Just ten years ago tuition was only 18,000
Crazy I don’t see the point
You’re right. Some people in very high places are keeping these groups quiet, is what I think. I can’t believe how many parents are giving up their children to these evil folks that want to mutilate and mentally harm them. It is insanity.
It’s just a sexual fantasy with them; they want to pretend they’re female but retain the guy stuff.
Would you have thought Rodney would’ve outlived poor Jonathan ? Damn shame. If only he had reached out for help before taking his life. :-(
Well it sounds like somebody didn’t get the bribe money.
