If these friends know/know how to contact his parents, they should, imo. If my S started acting strange, I’d want to know. The student’s parents may have relevant insight into his past behavior/medical history. I wouldn’t wait for the kid to “ask someone to call his parents.” I doubt he would do that, especially if he isn’t in his right mind. The school may not be able to call the parents, but friends should call them. I can’t imagine any parent who wouldn’t want to know of a behavior change like this.
