Schools don't care about bullying or sexual harassment as long as it doesn't look bad on them. If it can be swept under the rug, they will ignore it.

At least that is my experience from schools in the UK.

For parents in America, we have an escalation path: school board, media, lawyer. Depending on the situation, the orders may change.

When the school make you feel like you are the one who did something wrong you are not going to tell your parents about it.

this is why advocacy groups are important
