Each state has a maximum amount of time allowed for confinement of a child convicted of a juvenile offense. It varies from state to state.

However, a child charged with a serious felony, such as arson (and possibly attempted/felony murder) would likely be charged as an adult, and subject to the same maximum penalties as an adult charged with the same crime.

Is my child's school responsible for her safety on school grounds after they have left the classroom to go home for the day?

The school is responsible for the child from door to door, but if your child has a fight after school the school is in charge of the child and will suspend or do the necessary thing according to the school rules. All children, unless involved in a school function and activity, need to go home when school is out. School's are not baby sitters.
