A mother was devastated when her daughter was asked to leave prom because she was in violation of the schools dress code.

Mireya Briceno was a senior at Muskegon High School and had attended Muskegon Public Schools since kindergarten. Her Mother, Connie Briceno, said her daughter was unfairly kicked out of prom.

Muskegon High Schools principal, Brad Perkins, said he had been praised for the decision, which was made by another staff member. However, Perkins said he did not know why the dress was determined to have violated school rules.

Perkins also said the school ensured students knew the dress guidelines before they purchased prom tickets. He added that a video showing the dos and donts had been playing in the school media center and his office.

Muskegon High also provided students with written guidelines and a form they must sign to show they understand the dress code before they can purchase prom tickets.

Despite Mireya being kicked out of prom, her mother insisted that they read the schools guidelines and ensured her daughters dress met them.

Connie noted that she had messaged Perkins to explain to her why her daughter was told to leave prom. “Whats done is done. All I wanted is for him to call me and give me an explanation,” Connie emphasized.

Mireya also spoke out, explaining what her dress looked like and what happened when she got to prom until she was kicked out.

Mireya Is Kicked Out of Prom for Her Dress

Mireya chose a long, backless, short-sleeved dress from her prom. The dress was blue with white polka dots. Her mother felt her dress was beautiful and appropriate and had followed the schools guidelines.

As per the schools guidelines, backless dresses were acceptable. Connie even revealed that when they went shopping, they ensured the dress they chose followed the schools dress code. “We looked at the rules, and we picked the dress together. I thought she looked beautiful,” Connie added.

Mireya went to her boyfriends prom in a different dress. Her boyfriend attended Reeths-Puffer High School.

So, Mireya went to prom, and she had no problem getting in as she was wearing her boyfriends jacket because it was cold outside. While at prom, the student took pictures with friends and the cheer coach. She drank punch and hung out with her friends.

However, after an hour at prom, the vice principal approached her and asked her to stand and turn around. When she did this, the vice principal told her, “You have to leave; youre in dress code violation.”

According to Connie, Mireyas boyfriend and her date asked the teacher if the student could wear his jacket. However, the teacher said Mireya could only wear her own jacket or go back home and change her dress.

Mireya then left the prom and called her mother from the parking lot. Connie said Mireya got into the car and started crying. Mireyas mother was devastated and wondered why other girls who were wearing dresses like her daughters and some even more revealing outfits werent asked to leave:

“Other girls were wearing similar style dresses, like dresses with cutouts and dresses with sheer lining on the midriff. Why were they allowed to stay and my daughter wasnt?”

Two other female students who were asked to leave because of their dresses found something to cover their outfits and returned, but Mireya didnt.

The school also never explained why Mireya was kicked out while other girls with dresses similar to hers were allowed to stay. However, Perkins said, “I feel bad Mireya wasnt able to make it back into the prom.”

Mireya also shared this incident on Facebook alongside pictures of herself in a gorgeous prom dress. She said she was kicked out because her dress was too revealing and apologized to her boyfriend because they didnt get to dance or take a picture:

“My senior year of prom was ruined, but I still have his in 2 weeks. I felt pretty, I had my amazing boyfriend on my side & thats all that matters.”

Connie felt sad that her daughter did not get to enjoy her night as other girls did, but Mireya got a second chance at prom two weeks later.

Connie was glad that her daughter had her boyfriends prom to attend as much as she missed her own. She noted that when Mireya was kicked out of prom, she asked her to go to dinner with her boyfriend and try to enjoy it.

Mireya was also sad that she missed out on a memorable time with her friends but was glad she had people talking when she was asked to leave prom.

Mireya went to her boyfriends prom in a different dress. Her boyfriend attended Reeths-Puffer High School. The two looked gorgeous in their outfits.
