The fact that the administration pretended not to know about an event that everyone seemed to know was called "Rat Day" says a lot.
But I'm not sure, other than telling them that what they were doing made them look like jerks, what the administration could do at the time. Would you have had them hauled into the principals office for somekind of non-verbal harassment, maybe?
I'd make sure that next Halloween students knew that any dress that appeared to be radical departure from a student's typical dress would be considered a costume and wouldn't be permitted.
