Schools and Youth A federal judge ruled that high school senior Constance McMillen had a First Amendment right to attend her senior prom with the date of her choice and wearing the clothes of her choice, although he said he wouldn’t force the school to hold the prom they canceled after McMillen requested to attend with a female date. A high school in the small town of Cochran, Georgia, however, has affirmed it will allow 18-year-old Derrick Martin to attend his prom with a same-sex date. Unfortunately, his parents have now kicked him out.
