High School Life/Should I fight?

Question
I am almost finished with my Freshman year of High School and there is another boy in my same grade who has been harassing me every single day. It has been going on the entire year and when my Parents, his parents, the Principal, the head proctor, the guidance counselor and a lady who is the top person of all the schools in my town had a meeting and decided to suspend my bully it basically got worse because he was upset that I got him in trouble.

He was suspended for 2 weeks but when he came back he meaner than before and he kept pushing me into things and saying "do something about it". He keeps telling everyone how ridiculous it was that I had all these people in a meeting about him.

So what has happened recently is that these kids came to me and told me that if I fight back on the last day of school, even if I lose the fight in like one hit or something that next year they will all stick up for me and I would not have to worry about Sean anymore.

I think that Sean and I are equally matched so I don't think he could beat me up at least not badly.

This would be done after school on the last day in a park.

The same guys have done this before with other kids and were true to their word about sticking up for the person they promised it too.

I'd like to know if there is any reason that I shouldn't do this?

I think that if I don't this will just get worse next year and I have had a horrible freshman year. Sean messes with me so bad that I get sick thinking about going to school. If I fight him then I instantly will have like 20 people who will stick up for me. I just want to know a reason why I shouldn't do this. I'd rather get hurt than to go through one more year of torment from this guy.

Okay, honestly, fight. If you win, then hell yeah! you just beat this bully, and went out with a bang on the last day of school. If you dont win then its whatever, everyone will forget about it over the summer. I mean yeah there are definitely reasons you shouldnt do this, for instance, the cops, your parents, the school. but if your not trippin, no one else is. I hope this helped. sorry if you were looking for me to like dissuade you from fighting or something, im being honest here, lol.
