That is an interesting hypothetical question. Because this has never happened in the United States, it would be up to the US Congress to recommend a punishment and it most certainly would be appealed to the US Supreme Court for a decision. As the US Armed Forces Commander in Chief, the president probably could be sentenced to death if convicted by the Supreme Court for treason.
Yes - pistols originated in the 16th Century - so they would have been around for the later stages of the Tudor period.
Tudor schoolpunishment consisted exclusively of birching. Flogging with a birch rod (i.e. a thick heavy bundle of birch twigs) was applied to the naked buttocks of pupils who misbehaved or failed to learn their lessons. Pupils had to kneel and bend over a ‘flogging block’ to receive the punishment, which could be up to 50 strokes. The whole of the victim’s bottom (including the anoperineal sphere) would be a mass of blood and raw lacerated flesh following the punishment.

If in a civil court, the punishment was classed as purjury, they would be put in stocks and items would be thrown at them. If in the queens court you would be put in stocks and then hung

The worst type of punishment on board a galleon is 'flogging'. You would receive a number of lashes from a knotted whip depending on how bad the crime had been.
In Tudor times, punishment for murder typically included hanging, often in a public setting to serve as a deterrent to others. Nobles could be executed by beheading to show their higher social status. Additionally, murderers could also be subjected to other forms of punishment, such as mutilation or gibbeting.
Most likely, if the punishment violates the Eighth Amendment prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment.
If they have been summoned, they would be in contempt of court and subject to punishment by the court.
That depends on the seriousness of the crime. For petty crime, shoplifting, speeding and so on, the local magistrate would decide in the Magistrates Court. The punishment would be a fine or some public service. More serious cases of crime would be tried in a crown court before a judge and jury. The jury would decide on guilt and the judge would decide on the punishment. The punishment would be jail.

It would depend on the legal implications of his actions. Impersonating a high school student and lying to law enforcement are both illegal actions that could carry consequences. A court would need to determine the appropriate punishment based on the specific circumstances of the case.
If it is proven that you lied, you can be held in contempt of court. It would then be at the judge's discretion to assess punishment, which could include being fined, time in jail, or both. I would guess that the severity of punishment would "fit the crime, " in other words, depending on what impact your lie had on the outcome of the original matter.

This would be considered theft in most states. You will have to deal with a lawyer and court to figure out your punishment.
