Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
As a high school teacher and the mother of a daughter who is a high school junior, I need to respond to the parents involved in “A problem with prom, State track meet conflict prompts York students to plan new event” (Metro, April 16).
Parents, in organizing an alternate prom at York High School, and in disregarding the time and effort and expense involved in the planning of the traditional high school-supported event, are sending quite a message to their children. It is not a message of compromise, respect and civility, all the things children should have learned in their four years of high school. Parents: Your children are watching you.
