Can they prove you stole it? If so you could be charged with theft and suspended from school.

Several things can happen. You need to sit down with an attorney and talk over your option.

The burden of proof is on the state and it must be proof beyond a reasonable doubt. If you returned the key, it probably will not go further as it relates to criminal charges.
