Should a school be able to require students to consent to random, suspicionless drug testing as a condition for purchasing prom tickets?

The school is well within there legal rights to do so as long as you have notice in advance

In June 2002 the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that "testing students who participate in extracurricular activities is a reasonably effective means of addressing the School District's legitimate concerns in preventing, deterring, and detecting drug use."
Because your prom is considered an extracurricular activity....they can!

Yes. Schools should be able to require random, unannounced drug tests at any time.
Drugs are illegal and those who take them are troublemakers. The school has the right to keep those deadbeats out of the school arena.

She is asking for a "good answer " which can interpreted as the answer she wants to hear.
No one who has nothing to hide gets cranky over a pee test.
