If the student's First Amendment case had gone to trial it would have been even more expensive. According to the Oregonian:
School officials had defended their actions in court, saying the shirt would contribute to a "hostile learning environment" and would make students feel insecure in school, noting that about 33 percent of the high school's students are of Hispanic descent. They also said the school had been the site of recent student walkouts and sit-ins to protest Trump's immigration policies [None of which these Oregon leftist kakistocrats stopped].

But U.S. District Judge Michael W. Mosman found the school district couldn't justify its censorship. The judge said he balanced constitutionally protected speech with the orderly running of a school.

The school got off easy. Its taxpayers didn’t.
