Los Angeles Area School Accidentally Gives Students Wrong Prom Date
BLOOMINGTON (CBSLA.com) — Bloomington High School students arrived at Santa Anita Park on Saturday expecting to attend their prom, only to discover they were a week early, after a scheduling mix-up by the school.
Santa Anita Park told the students that their prom was scheduled for May 5, though the school had told students the event would be held on April 27. The mix-up sent the venue scrambling to accomodate the 400 students.
Santa Anita successfully cleared a room and secured a D.J. for the event. Still, student Maritza Valdez described the event as “upsetting” and “disappointing.”
The school is taking the blame, calling it a miscommuncation, according to the school’s principal. They acknowledge that the night is also a costly one for students and their families.
