There is one more option. Have a small group of people push their agenda while the masses are mostly unaware.

By asking what the role is, you presupposed that we can decide on one, and that it will somehow happen. If the adminstrators and teachers don't fulfill their role, that's a different question.
There are really only two possible answers in the current public school systenlm:
1. Whatever a broad consensus of people want them to do.
2. Whatever a slim majority can impose on the rest.
As consensus evaporates, we are left with the latter. This plays out in red/blue states differently.
Eventually, we may need to move to a voucher system so that the parents just pick a school that they like.
