The only point I was attempting to make is by building support within the community through success and strong lobbying efforts would result in lasting change. The lawsuit will only divide the community and drain precious resources. Legal action may be the only way to bring resolution to the problem, but it should be the avenue of last resort. I think you'll find most who have been involved in litigation will concur.
Unfortunately, all to often, the complaints are met with a lot of "We'll look into it." with lip service being paid to those making the complaints. Until the complainant shows up with a large legal club, will things get done. As far the legal costs go. The school board could have avoided them altogether by doing what was right for the girls from the beginning.
