It sounds like a religious private school, so good luck.

Its Walker High School, a public school.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walker_High_School_(Walker,_Louisiana)

“They basically told me that I should be ashamed of myself,” Timonet told a local news outlet. “That I wasn’t basically following God’s ideals, which made me cry even more.”

The principal inserted their religion into their job at a public school.

Well that sounds like a damn easy win for a court case.
