Fayetteville 13-year-old Cloe Rubiano is saving herself for marriage, but school officials think she should keep that to herself.
Robiano, a student at Ramay Junior High, purchased a t-shirt at a Christian festival that reads “Virginity Rocks” on the front, and “I’m loving my husband and I haven’t even met him” on the reverse, which sums up her beliefs on sex and marriage.

“I really like the shirt because I was always raised that way,” Rubiano told the news site. “I didn’t really think anyone would make a big deal out of it.”
