With all due respect, I wholeheartedly disagree.
The government can take no action depriving you of life, liberty or property without "due process of law." (See 5th Amend. U.S. Constit.) A school district sets up guidelines and procedures in order to mete out punishment. They MUST follows those rules, regardless of whether the person being punished deserves the punishment or not.
I disagree with your conclusion.
If the law says you must do AB and C before you punish, and you don't do AB and C, are you suggesting that the person being punished is WRONG for demanding that AB and C be done???
Let's assume a hypothetical...let's assume this Marnie Holz was mistakenly identified...does your opinion change?
