Dozens of students who have already spent money on dresses, rentals and more have been shut out of the Homewood Flossmoor High School prom due to venue size.
"I've worked so hard up to this point and I feel like prom should be a night where all of that should be celebrated," she said.
In a message to ABC7, the school's principal said in part, "Looking forward, we will assure that a larger space is secured for Prom 2024. We are excited about this year's event, we appreciate our students' interest in and support of the event, and we will make all efforts we can to accommodate the juniors remaining on our waitlist.
"It's not fair to anybody because everyone is getting involved to celebrate this day it's just been taken away from us," Omani said.
