We as alumni parents are VERY DISTURBED with this present decision to allow boys who identify as girls to attend HH ALL GIRLS School.

Harpeth Hall is a girl’s school that prepares them beautifully for their future as women.
Why add to the stress our girls are already exposed to everyday.
The school could not be called a girls school.

Changing the HH product from admitting biologically born females to those who think or feel that they identify as a girl is unbelievable. Our founders had a vision and built an incredible all-female school. This is unbelievable. For those who paid hard tuition dollars for this elite institution this year and are now exiting it, shouldn’t you reimburse them full tuition? You change a tried and true product without the support of alumnae, parents (past and present) and students (present and future). That’s unethical and wrong to deceive so many. Now it’s a damaging public relations issue that’s tarnished the fine reputation this school once had. It’s an embarrassment to say I graduated from Harpeth Hall. The Board, the Headmistress and the rest of the poor leadership at the school has overlooked how damaging this truly is.

I have always been so proud that my daughters had the opportunity graduate from Harpeth Hall. I will not feel the same if boys (from birth) are allowed to attend. There are many options in Nashville and surrounding counties for children with identity conflict.

Totally insane and contrary to what HH should focus on. The process was woefully inadequate and excludes the people that should have the deciding input on anything this radical. We don't want wokeness and CRT infecting what once was a honorable school. Financial support will surely take a hit.

Please keep HH as it is. There is no need to corrupt this institution with progressive nonsense. Woke somewhere else,

I believe an open and CIVIL forum where the board can give greater context to the communication and faculty, parents and donors can voice thoughtful concerns and questions would help immensely!

No biological males should be allowed to apply to HH. Require a birth certificate.
