Most schools will not allow the private raising of funds by the students, unless it is on behalf of the school only, and for school purposes.
I would think that in almost all cases, that right remains with the school itself, to exclusively raise funds that are only sanctioned by the School Board.
The problem with coin club funds within a school is that the funds have to be managed. That could imply legal obligations and responsibilities.
For the the school student coin collector, just form your club anyway, and ask the school to allow you to meet in regular meeting place on school grounds. If there are enough students interested in coin collecting, I am sure that they would designate a place for to you meet regularly. You may find that some teachers would like to join also.
I also feel sure that they would allow you to buy, sell and swap between yourselves.
The school may even allow you to use their printer to produce a school coin club bulletin.
