YORK, Pa. (AP) — A Pennsylvania high school student is in hot water for asking Miss America to prom during a question and answer session at school.

Eighteen-year-old Patrick Farves said he received three days of in-school suspension Thursday because he asked Nina Davuluri to prom.

The senior at Central York High School stood up and popped the prom question, then walked to the stage with a plastic flower. Davuluri just laughed and the students cheered.

School officials heard about Farves' plan in advance and warned him not to do it. He has apologized for disrupting the event.

The school says students are disciplined for breaking rules and this incident is no different.

Davuluri was at the school to talk with students about diversity and the importance of science, technology, engineering and math studies.

So stupid. Clearly Nina didn't think it was a big deal. Just let the kid have his moment!

This is so stupid. If I were his parents I would complain about it.

7.5/10 would ask to prom despite inevitable suspension

Saw this on the local news, didn't expect it to be this "big". Lame either way. Central York School District has had a history as of late of discipline problems so they have been going overboard.

"Davuluri was at the school to talk with students about diversity and the importance of science, technology, engineering and math studies." - lmao wut?

Pretty dumb. I was suspended a few times in school for stupid reasons and never actually minded. You're not going to miss out on anything really in 3 days, no big deal. Half the people in my school were suspended at one point because someone made a Facebook group (back when Facebook was at the height of it's popularity) about how a certain teacher was a cunt and anyone who liked it got banned for a few days!
