You might want to have some parents check in with the admin. Perhaps there is some paperwork they could complete so that they could be a standby person when the teacher cant be there. It might be as easy as becoming a PTA member or just fillilng out chaparone paperwork. Sometimes when admins see parents willing to be involved they can stretch the rules. You could also see if someone from the custodial staff could be the "school" rep for nights like this.
