The law is the law. It is a felony. Should it be a felony? That is a matter for the state legislature. The fact that students did it inside a school does not impact on that decision. They are 18 year olds and whether they did it in a school or on a public bus, it is the same thing. They will have opportunities to defend themselves. The first thing is obviously the confession to the Resource Officer. Where they notified of their rights? I think they have some opportunities to navigate through the legal problems and get it dropped to a misdemeanor. In particular the kid who did the distracting - it may be a difficult case to prove against him unless he was involved in posting it online as well.
