Little did they know that just three days later they would have a new prom queen after the classmate they elected made a selfless act.
On Wednesday, Kendra Muller (16) the junior girl who was named prom queen on Saturday, walked into a classroom and handed her sash, tiara and title to Amanda Belnap, a special needs student who had been voted &lsquo;first attendant&rsquo;, or first runner-up.
&ldquo;Kendra came into Amanda&rsquo;s class and, in front of her peers and the teachers, said &lsquo;I thought that Amanda really deserves this honor&rsquo;,&rdquo; the school&rsquo;s principal said. Amanda, also 16 and a junior, is a cheerleader and well-known and well-loved by her fellow students.
Kendra is no stranger to struggle, being a survivor herself. She was paralysed in an accident three years ago and is wheelchair-bound. Amanda, meanwhile, has been relishing in her new title, wearing her tiara and sash around school with a &lsquo;grin from ear to ear.&rsquo;
