“In an effort to prevent putting both our students and prom advisors in a difficult position on the night of prom and to prevent our students from spending hundreds of dollars on a dress inconsistent with the prom dress code , it was suggested that the prom advisor could pre-approve the dresses worn ahead of time," said interim superintendent Randy Bergquist in a statement. "We were hoping this would ensure that no one would be denied the privilege of participating in the grand march on the night of prom. We are not going to require any such photo prior to the prom.”
