Some schools have security cameras in the parking lots, so they might be able to find out it was you. You probably signed a wavier or it was mentioned in your school's handbook that they are not responisble for loss/damages to vehicles, but that only means you can't sue the school. If the person finds out it was you they can sue you.
If you remember what the car looks like, I would go try to find it in the parking lot, and see if there is any damage to it. If there is, you have to take responsiblity for your actions. If you don't know which car it is you can always just turn yourself in and have the principal take car of who the car belongs to.

request an officer patrol the lot, we have one now because a bunch of kids got their cars broken into, and if the school has to keep payin for shit, then their gunna want protection on the lot too. [ god-smusgrove's advice column | Ask god-smusgrove A Question ]
