[quote=Anonymous]Ok, I haven't read all the comments here, but if OP is still reading, let me first of all thank you for your previous willingness to attend the event and support the school. I'm in the camp that believes these events are a waste of time and I'd rather just have higher tuition or send a check, but some truly do enjoy them and work hard to put them on. As for socialization, I only got to know other parents because we're still in an elementary school and we went to every class birthday party when the kids were young and chatted with folks there. Our school also lets parents gain volunteers hours by hosting a parent party, specifically to let parents socialize with each other. If that's an option, you could try that. Or you could do some volunteer work at the school, which might give you a way to communicate and get to know some of the other parents. Or not. That's ok too.[/quote]
