    1. Both students walk towards each other calling each other out.
    2. Boy throws racial slur and shoved girl in chest. Boy stands ground.
    3. Girl recovers from shove and retaliates with punch towards face.
    4. Boy returns punch towards girl.
    5. Fight ensues.

    I think the girl was totally justified in throwing a punch from a moral POV. Boy is a piece of shit. But from a rules POV I think there is some ambiguity of 3 is defense or escalation. And from an admin POV you probably suspend both since you don’t want either in school the next day or two until there is more time to review the situation and deal out discipline. I’m guessing part of the delay is that this happened right before a holiday. Curious if there is any update on the school review and disciplinary action for both students.
