A transgender teen in Mississippi missed her high school graduation after a federal judge denied a motion requesting she be allowed to wear a dress and heels under her robe.

The Mississippi 17-year-old is not participating in her high school graduation ceremony because school officials told her to dress like a boy and a federal judge did not block the officials' decision.
