I think you should take advantage of the fact you're in highschool and it's not really an important place in the long run. Teachers care less and tend to chalk it up to rebellion. If you have good grades, don't get in trouble, are involved in extracurriculars, and otherwise are a good citizen, probably most teachers aren't going to take time out of their day unless your school is REALLY liberal.    For perspective: I wrote a final paper for English class that was basically the Revisionist perspective on the Holocaust, and I outspokenly debated my poli-sci teacher accordingly. Nothing happened except I got an 88% on the paper.    As far as I understand, public school teachers are more restricted than university professors. If a 10th grade teacher says they're grading from a rubric that says they're grading based on grammar, spelling, sentence structure, and format only, they can't, in most cases, turn around and give you a failing grade for the assignment because they don't like the content.
