But they weren't just branding themselves, exactly. This was a "show of defensive solidarity" apparently overseen by the defensiove coordinator, an employee of the high school. So, if an injury, infection or the like had occured, or if a parent (this being high school, most of the kids were probably minors) had a problem with their children being branded without parental consent, the school system would be liable. There's a whole host of liability problems for the school system here.
