I refereed, but never middle school or high school games. Instead I refereed city league men's and women's games and intramural college men's and women's games. In that forum, I got no feedback from anyone about my ability to call a game.

The lower the level, the less likely there will be any training, classes, feedback, etc., as you have already experienced. The higher up an official goes, the more training and feedback they get. The problem, of course, is the officials most likely to need this training and feedback are the ones doing these types of games, because, in the grand scheme of things, these games are not important and they draw the lesser-experienced and lesser-trained officials. Even if your intentions are noble, without any type of background and status in the officiating community, your opinion will be no different than the average fan. So any type of communication with the assignor, if there is one, would be essentially useless.
So, again, why wouldn't you spend the same amount of time communicating with the school administration regarding the fans' and coach's behavior?
