The tshirt didn't say "Score with a Sophomore if you're of the opposite
Sex".

I haven't seen your daughter's yearbook, but my expectation is that the
school is accepting that a minority has the right to exist.

The Principal's actions were an attempt to supress promiscuity or what
he deemed to be sexually inappropriate mantras but there was no mention
of the need for that promiscuity to be of a heterosexual nature.

Would you prefer the school to allow students to walk around wearing
tshirts that said "Boff Like Crazy If You're Straight!" or something of
that ilk?

Hmmmmm,
