The girl who was denied inviting her girlfriend to the school prom, who then had to worry about school attitudes after the school cancelled the prom. Had good news after winning court appearances stating districts could no prevent her from going to the prom with a date.
However, recently Constance McMillen found out that she and some other kids had been invited to a fake prom, while the other students attended a secret event.
"They had two proms and I was only invited to one of them," McMillen says. "The one that I went to had seven people there, and everyone went to the other one I wasn’t invited to." [...] But Hampton says McMillen was never invited and organizers made it very difficult for her to find information on the time and location. That prom was later mysteriously canceled, with the Friday night event at the country club officially replacing it"
