A bit difficult to follow the original post with so many "A
said that B said that C"... but this is what I got:

1. A principal called two AP's "vindictive".
2. That same principal said she has no friends.
3. That same principal said she could get rid of teachers she
doesn't like.
4. A teacher and a secretary said that one of the AP's is
giving good evals in exchange for "good words" (to whom?)
about the AP.
5. That same secretary told a teacher that she had told an
investigator that insurance was being sold at the school (for
what? to students or employees? by whom?)
6. That same secretary has said that if admin bothers her she
will "take them down".
7. A parent said that a teacher in the dual language program
is not teaching in Spanish.
8. A non-Latino child is in a dual language program (what's
the problem there? in many dual immersion programs that would
be highly encouraged)
9. A smart child was moved from one class to another. (again,
the issue here isn't clear)
10. The teachers' association did not share its email address
with a teacher.

Are you a current employee at this school? You mention
mostly "former" parents, your "former" class, etc. You gave
us a link in your second message to look up which states
allow recording, but you never said which state you're in, so
I'm not sure how that helps.
I doubt that the rumor mill and second- or third-hand info
can be trusted. It sounds as though this school has a lot of
rumors and personality clashes. That can be a major problem,
but what you are asking here, or wanting to do, isn't clear.
