If you haven't been there yet, you need to go to
Wrightslaw and spend some time learning the mandated timelines for an IEP. Did you request it in writing? Was the principal's response in writing?
The suicide attempt would switch me into full mama-bear emergency mode, and my child would be out of school until the situation was adequately addressed. Have you involved his pediatrician at all? Is there another school that would be an option for him? It sounds like the well may be irretrievably poisoned at this one.
