I’ve never been to a high school football game in the state of Texas. So I’m not familiar with their normal procedures.

This.
Hitting someone when uniformed and in the normal course of play is part of the game. Yes, even after the whistle hits wouldn't be legally considered assault & battery (it's something to be punished within the context of the game as a penalty and/or ejection).
But once a player has been ejected from the game, they are not an active participant in the game and it's no different than if a spectator or fan ran on the field and hit a ref: it's assault and battery; and should be prosecuted as such.
I'm with Donk: the cops should've arrested his azz on the field in front of the full school and both teams.

I think the kid is Hispanic, and the rioters don't care about Hispanics.

Ehhh....He or she would immediately correct your use of might, insisting instead that may would’ve been more appropriate here.
Assuming this hypothetical teacher wasn't actually deserving of battery I think it's far more likely that he or she would have corrected the use of did instead of had done given that might is appropriate in the past perfect tense.

He should be in jail. Tried, then sent to prison. Are the prison leagues considered “organized sports”?

2 pages of what a horrible kid. Nobody pointing out the obvious. The ref sucks.
