Your question is in violation of EduQnA.coms Community Guidelines (#6 Don't harass, threaten, insult, or behave belligerently towards others), but here is an answer, anyway.
No. No one "has to" use a title when addressing anyone.
Teachers are in a position of authority over students, but are still expected to show respect to the students. However, some students make make claims that cannot and should not be honored, such as demanding to be addressed as "Lord Kor", or claiming to be an adult. Check out the legal code of "NYS" to see if a 13 year old is legally considered to be an adult or a minor.
"Reverend", in particular, is a troublesome title anyway. It can be self-proclaimed, or it can be bestowed by a cult. Even if it is earned through years of religious study, should someone expect to be "revered" by other who do not follow the same religion? If "Joe" was the leader of a satanic sect, would you address him as Reverend Joe?
If you don't want our wacko opinions, why did you ask US? Go talk to other 13 y/o adults and find out what their experience has been.
A teacher is not REQUIRED to call any adult anything.
If Joe was a Reverend and wished to be called such, Joe should ask the teacher respectfully if he/she would please refer to him with his title. If he/she declines, I don't think he/she can be forced to comply with Joe's requests unless the teacher's superior stepped in and enforced it.
