When I was a freshman in high school, one of the seniors wanted to take her boyfriend to the prom. The problem was that he was married to someone else and the wife didn't like the idea and threatened to do cause problems. After quite a bit of news coverage, the school board passed a rule that only local high school students could attend the prom. It was that way for years. Every class tried to get the prom location changed to somewhere else, so that other people could attend. I think after about 10 years it finally happened. Now they have prom off campus. Most of the kids there now, probably have no idea why that is. They weren't even born when the trouble started. Laura Cooper, where are you now?
