Would this be considered an ambiguity?

On Sunday, November 15, 1992, the administrators of Cardinal Gibbons High School held their annual orientation for prospective students and their parents, but I didn’t attend the event.

Is it clear that these are the parents of the students, not the parents of the administrators?

Thank you.
