[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks, PP!

I didn't know Mr. Fee is now the new principal- any idea who will take over his old spot?  Where is the old principal going?

One of the things that DH and I wondered/worried about is that we're both govt workers who work downtown, and our neighborhood seems to be mostly SAHP.  We were hoping that working parents or kiss and riders would feel included, but it sounds like from your post they do.[/quote]

If you both work, just be sure to show up for the things like PTA, school carnival, movie nights, etc.  People are friendly in this neighborhood.  Kindergarten is more of a get acquainted year, so be prepared for lots of awkward chit chat and small talk. By the end of the year it was more natural, and by first grade everything is normal.  The parents are all really laid back.

HV does welcome parents to help at the class parties. My suggestion if you do work is for you to sign up as a room parent helper at open house. You will get on the email list for the parties, and you can then plan to maybe take a day off or early day to help at one of them.  Your kid will be so excited to have you there, and it is a great way to get to know other parents on a face/name basis. There were several working parents in my kids class who do this, including a dad.[/quote]
