[quote=Anonymous]As others have observed, once your kids are in HS, you have a lot less contact with other parents. Basically, you get to know the parents of your child's closest friends and parents of kids who participate in the same activity. You might volunteer to support your kid's team or drama production or in some other capacity and that would be another way of becoming acquainted with those parents. Additionally, I'd note that as the student population increases, the "parent culture" becomes more diverse and diffuse. When there are only 20 kids in PK, you know all the parents and you create your own little culture and social system. When there are 130 kids in a high school class, there's not going to be such a cohesive feeling. This has been our experience at SFS anyway. [/quote]
