This doesn't solve this need:

If you create a special identity (such as BritTim suggests) and use it for sending and receiving all messages to this group, then you don't need to use Bcc when sending. You can then just search for messages which contain that identity (special alias) in any addressing field (From/To/Cc/X-Delivered-to). This requires discipline to implement, however. The other solution is to use a saved search for the individual addresses of the members of the school group, but this is slow if there are many group members.
