Every single parent and teacher and administrator in that district over the last 30 years? Not so much...
I'm somewhat sympathetic when some southerners complain that they are not all mouth breathing neanderthals. Stuff like this completely undermines their case.It fvcking blows my mind, that in 2013 there are segregated proms anywhere, even in the south. I know backwards hicks are backwards, but even I had figured they had made it at least to the mid 80's by now. Jeebus.

Yes, I have changed my political affiliation to the Democratic Party.
It doesn’t take much to see the culture of intolerance surrounding the Republican Party today. I have wondered before about the seemingly harsh undertones about immigrants and others. Look no further; a well-known organization recently confirms the intolerance of that which seems different or strange to them.
First comment drives home his point I think:
Hey Pablo Pantoja, I googled you… you are a white guy with blue eyes… There is no bigger privilege today than “white hispanic priviledge”.
“My grandfather served in an all-Puerto Rican segregated Army unit, the 65th Infantry Regiment. ”
Of course it was segregated… Puerto Ricans speak Spanish and even till this day are not very good with English.
