Your insulin will be fine during the day, at room temperature. It will last at LEAST a month at room temp.

I would definitely have your parents go to the school and get their attention.
My daughter has never had a problem w/ leaving her supplies in the office, etc...
It's actually time that I set up another meeting for a new 504.

While 504 is a law, so is IDEA, both of which would protect your rights in school. It's very important that if the school is refusing to put in place, first of all it is documented in writing. Then file a complaint with the US DOE,Office for Civil Rights, they enforce it.
