That's the policy at every school I've ever heard of. Schools don't want to get involved in arbitrating who started what. In a lot of cases it's not so cut-and-dried, and regardless you'd have pissed off parents to deal with more often than not. It's easier just to be even handed and enforce a "fighting is not acceptable" policy.

It does seem like schools these days hand out suspensions and get the police involved a lot more liberally than they used to. When I was a kid, a fight that didn't result in grievous bodily injury was good for a couple of days' detention at most. I don't think I ever saw someone get suspended before I was in high school. The idea of getting the police involved was virtually unthinkable.
