I don't think the school has the nerve to deal with the problem, they are so concerned that their might be piles of "special circumstances" that drove the attackers -- maybe they were extra depressed because they missed their ADHD pills -- so it is impossible for them to take a side. That is in the end why the schools refuse to do anything about bullying, because that would force them to take a side and the side they didn't take would have the anger parents yelling "Why didn't you take our kid's side? you must be racist, homophobic, "anti-something that we are"!"

In this case; however, I think it is clear that there was an assault. The parents of the victim should press charges against the attackers. An extreme response, maybe but when are we going to start teaching our kids that there are consequences for their actions?
