Otherwise they will keep on pestering you with dance invites. But as she mentioned, suggest to them to maybe get together for something else. I think maybe you can even suggest a movie or something that you will enjoy and that will be of interest to you.

There is nothing more attractive to boys than a challenge. If they think that one of them has a chance with you then they will keep asking you.
So simply say that you have an important family thing on the day of the dance and cannot go with anyone. Also tell them in coversation regularly how you are just not interested in a boyfriend at the moment and help them find girls to go to the prom with. I bet there are lots of lovely girls that the boys overlook and you could point out how they are gorgeous but don't show it at school.
Good Luck!! xx

Don't feel guilty about your preferences. If you're not interested in something say so. If you're using the pretext of potential sex in order to obtain friendship, what you get isn't going to be genuine friendship. Friendship is based upon honest, not false pretexts.

 Just talk to them in person with a cheerful smile and tell them im sorry with the truth. and mention that maybe not to the school dance but definately to do something else "as friends".
