Miscommunication leads to prom debacle

Bloomington High School students before leaving for the prom that never happened.

STUDENTS at a Californian high school were bitterly disappointed when it turned out they had been stood up – by their own end-of-year dance.

The final year students from Bloomington High School travelled 64km to the function centre in Santa Anita Park, only to find the date on their prom invitations did not match the booking, KABC-TV and the LA Times report.

"We thought it was a joke," said student Selena Reyes.

The invitations listed the event on April 27, but it was booked at the venue for May 4.

The invitation for the Bloomington High School prom, with the incorrect date.

An alternative venue was hastily arranged and fast foods brought in. "The first hour and twenty minutes it was just a lady playing music off her laptop," said George Carbajal.

A visibly distressed parent, Diana Gomez, told a reporter: "It's hard for me to provide for my child and this is a magical moment and it's not going to be able to be replaced."

Ignacio Carbrera said in his 13 years as school principal he had never seen this happen before. He is taking responsibility for the mix-up in communication between the school and the event planner.

A makeshift dance was cobbled together, with fast food served and music played for the first 90 minutes from a laptop.

A second prom – free of charge - has been arranged for late May, but many of the parents and students are already out of pocket for limousines and other expenses.

"This is [my daughter's] last year, this is what they remember," said Ms Gomez. "There is no going back."
