Hi anonymous,
A lot of this would depend on how your group is organized. If you are set up as an independent parent group, you do have say over what you will do, But, you don't operate in a bubble and need to get along with the school administration in order to really accomplish your goals. So, the key is compromise. Is there a way to meet and have a conversation about your goals and objectives? Chances are, they mirror the school administrations hopes of the school community, too. If they give you some room to meet those goals, everyone benefits.
If your group is part of the school or was set up by the school, you unfortunately have a lot less leeway and can't really object to much of what they ask you to do.
