The student should be advised to abandon forbidden acts and their propagation. If she desists, then conceal her matter. However, if she insists, or if it is known that advice will not benefit, then reporting the matter to the school administration is correct, in order to curb her mischief and rectify her morals or to expel her. For the one who openly commits a sin should not be concealed, and this includes one who speaks about what they secretly did.
