When I was in school participating in a fight was an automatic suspension even if you were on the defensive. Of course the aggressive/procrastinator would get a harsher punishment, but dems da rules.

Always thought that was stupid.
"no, you are supposed to lay on the ground and get beaten to a pulp as you yell for a teacher, how dare you defend yourself!"

In my high school, you would be suspended even if you stood right there and got beaten to a pulp. They have no way of deciphering who is the real instigator if the story is warped in favor of the person who tells the story. Moral of the story: Don't fight.
Dimentio, telling the truth never hurts. You never know what is going on inside the principal's head in situations like these, but all he/she would like to know is the truth. Even if you are still punished, it is better to do the right thing.
