Does the Bill of Rights have an age limit? Maybe it's in the fine print at the bottom ... you know, I just don't read the fine print like I should.

Yes, it does. Minors do not have the same rights as adults (e.g. Amendment II). However, I think you'll find that, while the parents have the authority and responsibility to restrict a minor's freedom of speech, the school does not. This is just my gut feeling, though.
