School Officials Cancel Prom After Deer Carcass Found in Car

High school students in Stratford aren't likely to have a prom this coming spring, after district officials say some students are connected to acts of vandalism.

Stratford Superintendent Scott Winch says, the decision to cancel the prom was made because the acts were serious enough to involve police.

The village's police chief says in one case, a deer carcass and piles of horse manure were placed in a residents car.

High School Principal, Paul Rozak says, part of making a mistake is admitting when you're wrong, and he thinks the teens responsible should come forward.

Police say at this point, they have several promising leads on the incidents.

    Come on...enough already! It seems as if all common sense has been thrown out the window here. If this situation was serious enough to involve the police, they should be the ones responsible for catching the guilty party, not the students, who have been threatened with loss of their prom unless they "posse up" to weed out the culprit themselves. Was the vehicle that was vandalized fingerprinted? Have suspects been questioned? Why is this being treated any differently than any other case of vandalism? Must all the other students pay the price whenever one of them does something wrong? I think more people than the vandal are guilty of doing something wrong here...

    Most if not all the students at Stratford know who is responsible for the vandalism. The responsible parties should come forward so as not to make one of their own classmates a snitch. The vandals are the one's who are denying their classmates a prom.

    That is disgusting what they did. I betcha had that happened to you you'd be singing a different tune. But,I think the school officials should have said, it's cancelled until someone comes forward.

    Real mature, punish the whole student body trying. Why not send them home from school without feeding them lunch?
