That the five kids acted out of patriotism, rather than to be provocative. You dont know that.
Are they model students?
Have they had or provoked confrontations with Hispanic students in the past?
We dont know any of the answers. Presumably, the Asst. Principal does.

at least two of the boys wearing the American flag T-shirts have Mexican ancestry.

And, with the bolding, it appears that you are assuming or inferring that the Asst Principal acted based on his own ethnicity rather than out of concern for safety.

You are the one making assumptions.

Their reasons for wearing those clothes doesn't matter, they were within their rights to do so.

from the dress code -

Specific Inappropriate Dress Includes: Doo rags or bandanas of any color

There was no justification for telling the students to invert their shirts according to the dress code.
