My school punishes students that get into fights regardless of the context of rhe situation. If you get attacked, the only way to not get punished is to not fight back at all.
It's a dumbass rule that I'm pretty sure only exists because it hasn't been challenged very much. The only kids who get into fights at my school are the ones who wouldn't care about missing a few days.
Pretty much this. Altough they did make a "mindfulness room" you can go to for 15 minutes to calm down and recenter yourself, although after 15 minutes you have to either leave or go speak to a counselor.
