More details to this question:
I was wrongfully accused and verbally attacked by another parent at a PTA meeting in front of my peers. The parents there went home and told their kids who then went to school and told my son. I haven't slept since it happened. All I want is an apology if front of the peers I was humiliated in front of. What legal action can I take if I decide to go that route. By the way, this is not the first time this parent has attacked my character to others.

You will not get an apology. You cannot force a person to do the right thing. You should however, continue to do the right thing, ignore this other person, stay as far away from the other person as possible, and try to "rise above" the issue. this is not something that can be resolved through the courts, and has the potential to escalate if someone doesn't walk away.
