Can you explain to me how the school is within any legal rights by expelling these students for what they did while (a) not on school property and (b) not under the supervision of the school?
My school district in CA (San Ramon Valley Unified) just settled for $650,000 when sued for doing exactly this.
The US Supreme Court has addressed the issue of students’ rights; they don’t have as many as adults but school districts are definitely overreaching when they get involved with kids’ actions on the weekend, at home, in social media posts that don’t even mention the school or other students.
Maybe these kids aren't racist at all. Maybe they are geniuses and figured out a surefire way to get $650,000.

Maybe if they are supposed to be ‘educated’ at home, the home becomes under school control.
The journey to and from school is considered such.
