[quote=Anonymous]"Inane" questions were mentioned above. Here are some to avoid: - Anything that suggests you didn't do your homework by reading their website. Instead of "does the school have a good music program?" try "How many pieces are in the orchestra?" - Humble brags. Instead of "we're switching schools because the last one didn't offer math that was advanced enough for little Larla, can you meet her needs?" try "how does the grouping by math ability work?" - Hints that you're a PITA parent. "I noticed the cafeteria doesn't serve kale, are there plans to change that?" - Crassness in general. "Who do I talk to about making donations?" - Hints that DC might have a few little issues. "Larla was so bored in her public school that she was always accused of distracting the other children, can you believe it?"[/quote]
