I graduated high school in 2015. I remember similarly poking around a network drive until I found a file in plaintext which contained everyone's student ID and whether or not they had a nut allergy (protected by HIPAA), for the bus system.
I didn't think much of it, but some other students caught wind. Before I knew it, the superintendent threatened to have the police involved and press legal action for "hacking confidential student data."
It's CYA all the way, usually at the expense of the person in the chain least equipped to cover their ass (the student).
