And try as I might, I just cannot imagine anything a school system might do to a girl that would traumatize her more than a peer putting a bullet into her.

I have HAD physical trauma plus witnessed my share of death. Your imagination is not very good or you don't understand that the physical trauma is frequently minor compared to psychological trauma.

When you have sexual feelings and can't manage to use birth control, get pregnant as a result, run away to avoid stigma (mostly in her head), miscarry, get into more trouble miles from your family as a harbored runaway by people who take more advantage of you, yet feel STILL guilty about the birth control (all by the age of 17), THEN maybe YOU will understand. Your need for specifics is grotesque considering this is a personal story. I hope your idle curiosity is satisfied.

I've got two daughters. I understand.
