 A Mississippi county school board announced Wednesday it would cancel its upcoming prom after a gay student, Constance McMillen, an 18-year-old senior, petitioned to bring a same-sex date to the event. In addition to circulating a memo to the students banning same-sex dating, the district also refused McMillen's request to wear a tuxedo.
"Due to the distractions to the educational process caused by recent events, the Itawamba County School District has decided to not host a prom at Itawamba Agricultural High School this year," school board members said in a statement. In the announcement, the school board encouraged the community to organize a private prom. "It is our hope that private citizens will organize an event for the juniors and seniors. "We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this causes anyone." Question: Do you think the school board was right or wrong in canceling the prom in order to avoid having a lesbian couple in attendance? |
