Punt and Kick Off Return Fair Catch

High School Football Scenario. Does the receiver have to catch or attempt to catch football if he signals for a fair catch or can he signal and then just back away and let the ball land. I have been given 2 different rulings on this by 2 different head officials and I would like to know the true ruling on this act of play. Thank you
