Parent organizations


What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? PA

Not sure if this is the right forum, but here goes:

A member of my son's SSO Board (parent organization)
cheated to get elected into office. We have bylaws that
prove she was not eligible to be on the ballot to run for a
4th term, but she did so anyway and she won. The
school district claims there is no authority over the SSO
Board's actions and there is nothing we can do to stop
this person from acting as SSO President even though
we can prove she should not be there. My friend ran against
her for the position of President and rightfully she should have won.
They were the only two people on the ballot. Do we actually have to hire a lawyer to threaten with legal action if this woman will not step down from her position? What CAN we do?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

This is something that will need to be brought up to the Board of Directors of the organization. If they refuse to act, will it really be worth the thousands of dollars it would cost to get an attorney and a court involved?
