I don't know how far I can modify the sentence, but anyway:
The principal tried to calm down the parents of students who disappeared in the storm.

Just need an opinion on the phrase "worried students' parents".Why this phrase isn't correct?
IMHO , worried (ADJ) Students's (ADJ) Parents(NOUN).So "worried" correctly modifies parents as per the pattern.
ADJ+ADJ+NOUN
The correct one as per MGMAT SC Guide is:
The principal tried to calm the worried parents of the students who had disappeared in
the storm.
