You didn't specify, but I'm assuming the parent/teacher liaison is a teacher. If the situation is bad enough that all of the board is resigning, your recourse is to go to the principal and explain the situation. Make sure you document the specifics of what is going on. Set out your case against the liaison in an orderly and unemotional way. Point out that the school's most dedicated parent supporters are being alienated. If he truly wants parent involvement, he'll appoint a new liaison -- or let you go on without a liaison. If you run into a situation like this again, keep in mind that there is strength in numbers. A bully needs a victim, and she seems to be picking you off one by one. Your recourse is to unite as a board in your opposition to her. The presidents and the rest of the board set the rules, not the teacher liaison. Let her know in no uncertain terms you're in charge. In a situation like this you won't get anywhere trying to be nice. You have to be tough. Good luck, and please let us know how things go.
