Generally, schools do have immunity from liability unless the incident involved a motor vehicle. Without more specifics, I can't tell if there are other circumstances that might break the immunity defense.

More than likely the school would be immune from a lawsuit in the general description you provide. I recognize your frustration with this situation, but the cost of pursuing something like this would likely exceed any financial recovery.
