I am pretty sure they'll be able to dig up an email that will tie the cancellation to her lesbian-ness and then they're up sh*t creek without a paddle.
Secondly, this is
A) The USA we're talking about
and
B) A Civil suit, where the onus of proof is simply 'more likely than not'. i.e. Is it more likely than not that the prom was canceled to avoid having a lesbian student and her female date attend?
As I said above, I am sure that subpoenas to the school board's IT department for email / server backups could easily provide something that supports the cancellation being lesbian-related and then they're cooked.
