Excellent letter and work Els.
Asking for the IEP was a terrific idea. If there is hope or any muscle to change or find a path through this shitty school, it's that. It flexes the law. Its on the record. Good job.
Adults in the school taking this seriously can make a difference. I think calling out Columbine was a good move. Sending this to everyone was excellent. You should send a version to the local newspaper. Contact a reporter. This is serious shit. No authority, no matter how complacent and stupid wants to be the recipient of a "they told you so, here...it is documented", from a dead kid's parent. Student moderates that may side with baddies for their own self-preservation can be shown and supported by adults in a positive option, reducing the overall culture of evilness there. It can turn around.
Homeschooling- I glad you feel you could take it on if need be, and you have good resources- but you do loose the band, the social activities that are positives. And it sounds like there are other kids at this MS that would benefit from this evil being addressed.
C is lucky to have strong, attentive parents. Good job and all the best with this fight.
