"sue" suggests civil action and a decision by the wronged party.

They're lucky a prosecutor didn't prosecute them for criminal activity. The school would not have any say about whether or not this happens.

Schools are members of the local government "club". Prosecutors don't generally burn political capital giving the bird to other members of the club like that without a good reason.
