It's been a while, but when I was a kid, the school could punish you severely for behavior that happened far from school property. I don't recall it ever happening for a fight that occured on a weekend, but I know it happened several times for fights that occured in someone's front yard hours after school had let out. And when I was in a prep school, they could and did take severe disciplinary action for behavior which was in any way "unbecoming" of a student or made the school look bad. I don't think minors should ever be immune from an adult authority figure trying to impose some common sense discipline where it's sorely needed. But then I'm an old curmudgeon at the tender age of 35.
