HOUSTON – A local high school's dance this weekend at the Children's Museum of Houston ended abruptly due to rowdy behavior of the students, according to the museum.
Memorial High School rented out the entire Children's MuseumSaturday night for a homecoming dance. The dance, attended by about 1,000 students, started at 8 p.m. and was supposed to end at midnight.
According to Henry Yau, with the museum, Memorial's principal was in attendance and decided to end the party early around 11 p.m. because the students were being rowdy and disrespectful toward the museum staff.
