  The thing is, some of their little darlings may have been involved,
but they just don't know about it.

  I think it is fairly clear that many of these super well-heeled
residents of that school district are primarily worried about
protecting their property values that are inherently connected to the
reputation of the school district in which they reside and own
property.  That is why they just want the controversy to just go away.
 Indeed, many families moved to that county and school district
specifically to take advantage of that school system in terms of how
it props up property values as well as grinding out students who
matriculate to Ivy League universities in large numbers.  As you
pointed out, many do not give a rats ass as long as it does not
involved one of their kids.
