A mother in Lexington, KY plans to make a statement this weekend at a high school graduation by wearing the same dress her daughter had on the day she was sent back home from school.

Violet Burkhart, the high school senior, says that she wore the dress to school because she wanted to get dressed up and make her last day on campus memorable. What happened next left the high senior in tears.

Violet was sent home because her dress was too short, and now her mom plans to make a statement at the upcoming graduation ceremony. Violet's mom, who says she never wears dresses, plans to wear her the same dress that her daughter on the day she was sent home to graduation.
