The Hempfield School District issued a statement Friday apologizing for what has been described by several media outlets as an after-school drag show that was held by the Gay Sexuality Alliance Club at Hempfield High earlier in the week.
The district said Friday in a message posted to its website that it was “made aware of a serious situation that took place at the high school on Monday, April 25, after school hours.”
District Statement
Hempfield School District's statement posted to its website Friday says an investigation is underway.
The event reportedly featured dancers in “tight-fitting and revealing clothing with exposed buttocks,” LancasterOnline reported.
The district said in its statement that it was made aware of photos and videos of the performance and that it immediately began an investigation.
“First and foremost, the administration team apologizes to students, parents and the community on behalf of those involved in this event,” it said. “We are appalled at what took place and in no way condone this type of activity in our schools. Neither the dress of the invited guests nor the performance was appropriate in our school setting.”
The district said that it was “taking the incident seriously.”
LancasterOnline reported that Meridith Hilt posted about the event in a community Facebook group. The site said that Hilt said that her concern had nothing to do with the sexual orientation of those involved but that said she had an issue with the performance.
“It has nothing to do with them as an LGBT community,” she told the site. “It wouldn’t make a difference to me if it was a woman doing this. It’s irrelevant that they are drag queens. It’s the type of performance at a school.”
Hilt, who reportedly has two children in the district, told LancasterOnline that the exposed buttocks and types of dances are not what she would consider appropriate for the age group.
But another parent of children in the district, Melissa Taylor, told the site she believes parents whose children were not in the group should not involve themselves with what occurred.
“All they are doing is hurting the kids in that club and the teacher,” she told LancasterOnline. “If your kids aren’t involved and you’re not giving your permission, why are you getting involved?”
The school reportedly told parents that an “unnamed individual” has been placed on administrative leave while the investigation takes place.
We are appalled at what took place and in no way condone this type of activity in our schools.

How did this group gain access to the school buildings after normal operating hours ?
Did they break and enter the buildings ?
Hide behind the bleachers untill all the Normies left ?
Did the school notify the police a group was in the building unauthorised ?
No.
The school admin GRANTED access,
to a group they were aware was being granted access
So the school DID condone a KNOWN group access and use of school building.
The school admin statement logically contradicts themselves.
They are either lying they didn’t know and condone ( complicit )
Or they are not aware they are logically contradicting them selves ( incompetence )
Incompetent or Complicit .
I know which I beleive.
And it’s not the side that says
” which gender do you want to be ?”
” Don’t tell your parents, it will be our secret “
” we didn’t know or condone”
Spit
“Alright kids, nap time! I’m about to turn out the room lights!”
“Those that want to nap naked are free to remove their clothes and gather in the Let’s Explore Corner of the room.”
“All others, rest your head on your desk and go to sleep.”
Good thing they weren’t praying.
Stop the world I want to get off!!!
Yes, sure, they are appalled. (That they got caught)
Your Hempfield (aided greatly by the Lancaster County Amish) tipped PA to Trump and put him over the top with the EVs.
Pull your children and grandchildren out of government indoctrination centers and home school. Notice that anytime you read an article about this topic there are zero teachers that are are upset. Teachers are the problem. They are the ones that sponsor these clubs. The teachers that say nothing are complicit. Send them to the unemployment line. Make them go broke. Anyone that has a Ed degree should never be close to children, let alone teaching them. Teachers are failures. They sink to new lows of mediocrity each year. They do not excel in anything, particularly educating children.
