A senior student at the school launched a petition on Change.org in March 2017 to change the school's policy on not allowing students to bring a female guest to the school prom.[2] While the first petition was taken down a few days later, the student making a verified claim that she was pressured to remove it, a second was launched by a local resident with a similar request.[3] In response to the petition, the school's president stated that it requires students to attend the prom "alone or in the company of a friend or friends of their choosing" but that "the expectation has been that a Mercy student's date be male." Many students wore rainbow-colored ribbons on their school skirts for the rest of the year in the only way of protest that is permitted.
