Student 'expelled' over trans prom date
Briefly

Emily Wright, a senior at North Cobb Christian School in Georgia, claims she was forced to withdraw from her school after attending prom with her transgender friend. Although her mother had signed a form permitting their attendance, the school expelled Emily ten days after the event, citing a violation of policies that were reportedly not specified. Emily's parents argue that neither the prom guidelines nor the school’s student code of conduct explicitly prohibits LGBTQ+ individuals from participating in school events, leading them to label the decision as discriminatory.
