I also think it is great that the father is supporting his son. I watched when they were on this morning. I hope that they get their prom back somehow.
A school doesn't have to sponsor or support an event that is contrary to its mission. The school is putting the parents in charge.

"We are withdrawing from the battle and allowing the parents full responsibility. [Kellenberg] is willing to sponsor a prom, but not an orgy."

ETA: Agreeing with 33girl's comment. It is a Catholic school. If you don't agree with the mission of Catholic school don't send your children to one.
