Until the states step in and keep a very watchful eye on how officials are facing the repercussions from enforcing unsportsmanlike conduct and then backing them to the hilt (right or wrong), nothing will change.
Sounds like your area needs to have a better separation between the schools and the assignors.

Here, the schools have no say. The state dictates which organizations services which schools. It is done geographically and no two organizations cover the same area. The associations select their own assignors from within. In most areas, the assignors do a pretty good job of backing up the officials....ours does.
