high school fights

My character is male and he's getting in a fight at his high school with a bunch of other teenage boys. (In the United States.)

I've never been in a fist fight in my life. What would the other people try to do? (Punch the face? Punch the stomach? Scratch, bite, kick, whatever's necessary to win?) What kind of injuries might he and the parties come away with?

What usually ends such a fight? (Teacher intervening? Other students pulling them apart? One party giving up?)

Also, what's the typical school punishment for getting in a big fight? Suspension for a day? Week? Other?
