My understanding is that earrings do not have a religious exemption, and all religious jewelry still needs to not be a safety hazard.
Safety trumps religion, IMO.
Also, I wouldn't even mention the religious thing when arguing with an ignorant parent about their kids' earrings. I'm always amazed at two things:
1. parents who allow their kids to get their ears pierced mid-season.
2. parents who honestly think an hour without the earring is going to close the damm hole.
