Or just remind people that the next 4 years will see several appointments to the US Supreme Court---and the lower courts too.
our kids are in Catholic school, and i would have your daughter ask, if she feels comfortable, how this teacher can justify voting for a candidate that violates the Church's mandate on abortion. The kids at my kids schools are always agitating to try to get the teachers to say whom they will be voting for, but normally the teachers demur and say they won't say. THAT is preferable to a teacher just out and out saying she intends to vote for a PRO abort pol, while teaching in a catholic school. sure she can vote for whom she pleases, but seems she should keep her mouth shut about it.
Our priests have been GREAT about it, not naming names, but laying out chapter and verse why your responsibility as a Catholic includes voting for candidates that support policies in line with the Church's teachings. my husband saw a bumpersticker that says You can't be Catholic and Pro-choice. i wish we had a stash of them to stick on the windshields of the few kerry bumperstickers i see in our church parking lot.
let's make it a little easier:

Make waves. What you tolerate you condone. You must set the example for your daughter.
You had BETTER make waves.
You are paying for her education. Are you paying for her teacher to share her anti-Catholic views?
At this young age?!
Promising is, but keeping a promise, that is a different story.
that should be promising is easy
Definitely make waves, you are in a private Catholic school, you CAN make waves.
It was the Romans who defeated the Carthaginians ("Delenda est Carthago"--Carthage must be destroyed), but they were still motivated in part by disgust over the practice of child sacrifice.
I thought there was something wrong with what he said. Thanks for the correction.

**And after you go to the principal I'd consider going to the school board. (Our Catholic schools in this area have school boards.)
Please get back with us a give us a report on what happened.**
Bump that idea!
You, sir, are an informed voter! Way to go!
Excellent!
Make waves.
Well, knock me over with a feather!
Catholics trending against abortion?
Catholics actually thinking about voting their consciences instead of considering abortion to be just another issue?
How nice of them!
I think a pig just flew past my window!</sarcasm>
Yes, I'm glad to see this, but I've been fighting this for a long time and am very frustrated.
The Catholic vote should have always been a solid block as long as there were moral issues as serious as abortion decided.
This should have happened thirty years ago.
