I do believe the school had the ultimate responsibility of protecting it's charges on the trip. That said, the girl did violate the curfew, which was in place for a reason. I don't think she should be expelled by any stretch of the imagination, but the school needs to review it's policies and enforcement of the curfew rule for such trips. She should not have been able to get away from supervision which ultimately allowed the situation to occur.
