Seems to be your service. (I see the No Sim Card symbol in the Status Bar) You have 0 Bars. Maybe you should put it in Airplane Mode, cause WiFi will still work that way. If you keep it of Airplane Mode without a Sim Card, it can and will kill your phone battery rapidly, which could explain the overheating. But a rogue app can also be the cause of your battery drain and overheating. Also do you have a specific display setting like say 25%, 50%, etc.

Yes, very low signal or no signal will drain a battery pretty quick. Is wifi available at your school? If so, use it, and turn off mobile data.
