How does one press criminal charges when public school officials blatantly violate Ohio Revised Code 2921.45?

We feel that, as a result of a direct covert act (refusing to allow our child to call witnesses or present material evidence during an expulsion hearing due SOLELY to an alleged "clerical issue" that the school district discovered at the last minute -- two hours before the scheduled hearing -- in our child's school registration several years ago?...) officials of an Ohio public school district have intentionally conspired to blatantly interfere with our family's constitutional right to due process. There is already a 42 US 1983 lawsuit in the works, but we also want to press criminal charges against those involved. Do we simply go to our local prosecutor and press charges like we would against a civilian, or are there special hoops to jump through when government employees are involved?
