Prom News And Update: Female Student Kicked Out Of School Prom After Wearing A Suit Instead Of A Dress

Every high school girl's dream is to have a memorable prom night. Pennsylvania student Aniya Wolf did not only have one but two prom nights, the other one kicking her out before she even got to step foot on what would have been one of her most precious moments in high school.

According to The Huffington Post, Aniya Wolf is a lesbian and had been wearing t-shirt and pants for her three years in Bishop McDevitt High School. She did not feel the need to be on a gown at her prom night when she would rather wear a suit.

The Catholic school said it told parents that the girls should wear dresses and those who would not follow will not be allowed to join the prom. Since Aniya Wolf did not comply with the rules, a school official during the prom took her arm and threatened to call the police if she would not leave.

As per Independent, Carolyn Wolf, mother of Aniya, said she had already bought her daughter a suit for prom. She did not think that not following the dress code would ban her daughter from attending prom.

"I told them that I had read the dress code that was given to students and I didn't think that it precluded her from wearing a suit. I said that this was very unfair, particularly at the last-minute. We had gone out and bought a new suit. I think my daughter is beautiful in a suit," she told ABC 27 (via Independent).

William Penn High School came to the rescue and invited the female student to the school's prom at a York banquet hall last Saturday. Brandon Carter, the principal of the school, said "we do embrace all" and welcomed Aniya Wolf to their prom night without hesitation (via The Associated Press as per Kentucky).

This is not the first time for a prom night incident like this to happen. A lot of girls don't get to attend their prom nights or enjoy it because of imposed dress codes by their respective schools. Cosmopolitan listed 9 girls who experienced being kicked out for wearing either too revealing, "immodest" clothes or pants.

Bishop McDevitt High School released a statement saying, "Bishop McDevitt will continue to practice love and acceptance for all our students. We simply ask that they follow the rules that we have put into place" (via Independent).
