[quote=Anonymous]My child got into a new school off a wait list in the second week of school. We like the school a lot and the teachers are very nice. So are the kids. I just haven't connected with any parents or caregivers yet. A lot are there standing around at pick up time, so there's actually more opportunities for connecting than at our old school where almost everyone did aftercare or picked up in a hurry, but they seem to only talk to people they know and they even hang out for a while. Parents/grandparents, if you're in this situation and you have a minute, would you be willing to invite someone new into your conversation? My attempts so far at small talk have flopped. it's hard for me to make evening meetings because of my younger child, when it looks like the pta stuff is scheduled, but I'd love to chat at pick up time. Be my friend?[/quote]
