I think though the point is that a smaller school community generally means that parents are more likely to know each other... and private schools are generally smaller than public schools. More chances to get to know each other over time, and esp. if like PKA you socialize with them as well. You get to know generally how people comport themselves.
And even then, I think how well you know people depends on personalities/group dynamics/etc... our elementary school is quite small, but I have had very different experiences with my two kids' cohorts. The parents in ODS class/grade were a very cohesive group, and we remain so. YDS grade/class, not so much.
