Elite All-Girls School Pauses Policy Allowing Transgender Women

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.” (Excerpt from Fox News.)
