Whether I think the crime is worth formal probation or not is irrelevant. If that, plus the fine, is what the sentence is then that is what it is. Where I live it would likely be informal probation.
If it was just trespassing, then it was one of the subsection of PC 602, more than likely (perhaps 602(l)) and that requires you have som prior notice not to be there. I suspect you were expelled or previously told to stay away from the school?
As for the penalties your former boss might face it is more than just the taxes, he could be penalized THOUSANDS for every violation of FLSA, FICA, etc. The penalties will greatly exceed the amounts he should have paid you, so this is why he doesn't really want to get involved.

Yeah I did get expelled, the morning of the meeting at the school I walked past the meeting room to the room next door to give my friend a hug and when I went back he told me that I can't be walking inside of school. Fine I didn't, I didn't know that applied to me waiting for everyone in front of the school as well. The warning was me inside school so doesnt that only refer to the inside? He never said anything about me waiting outside so I thought it was irrelevent
Usually among the things you or your parents signed and/or received is a notice that says you understand you are not to return. I suspect that THEY have a copy of such a document, or are prepared to testify that you were verbally told not to return. Since you acknowledge being told this, that is not going to be much of an argument.
I suspect that if you are truly living 400 miles away, and are no longer involved with anyone at the school, that the DA may opt for a plea that will allow this to go to informal diversion of some kind ... in other words, if the DA does not drop it outright, he or she might allow you to keep your nose clean for 6 months to a year and they will drop the matter.
But, these are things to discuss with your attorney.
