In my county, parents tried to start a PTA, to bring some transparency and participation in the curriculum to the parents. The teachers came to the meetings in droves, and halted any forward progress with personal attacks and yelling to disrupt the meetings. The parents began to stay away. The teachers changed the organization to a parent-teacher-student group, and elected a 17 student, who proudly claimed to be a communist in front of everyone, to be the president.
