Municipal open meeting laws usually require three days notice for a special meeting, so I would use that as a minimum. For parent groups, a week is fairly typical for a meeting that is urgent but not an emergency. Publicize it through all of your usual channels -- send an email, put a notice on the bulletin board, and send a flyer home, for example. The goal is to make sure every interested party knows about the meeting, and that people are given enough time -- balanced with how urgent the meeting is -- to change their schedules and attend.
