Were the school officers only concerned, because he drew this picture? How was the boy behaving otherwise?
It's really hard to say if such extreme way to handle the case was necessary. I would think drawing itself is therapy. When a child of that age talks about dying, I wouldn't really think he yet is about to do something bad to himself. The bigger threat to harm themselves would brew inside those, who don't say anything.
Doesn't really sound like the child's rights were taken in count here either, if the incident caused more anxiety to him.
