Have at least a cooking skill of 5. Have your Sim stand in each room and check out the Environment score. The greener the better--I've gotten as much as 15 points per room. When you to into Buy Mode to purchase things, it'll let you know if it impacts the Environment score. I've had Sims with cheap stuff get their kids into private school. @Dan:

I've done this countless times. I seldom throw them birthday parties, just do the Grow Up self-interaction. I also time it so they age up after the tour and before dinner. Even the Headmaster will watch!

In Seasons, you can put leftovers in the refrigerator for later consumption, so just have your cook create the meal in the morning/early afternoon, and once they're finished and about to serve it, cancel the action, and then click on the serving platter and select "Put away leftovers." Then, when the headmaster arrives and it's time for dinner, just take it out and serve.

Ordering groceries will take valuable time, but as long as you order soon enough, you'll still have time to complete the dinner. If you're pressed for time, you may not want to have anyone eat dinner with the headmaster, since they talk up a storm and don't eat very quickly. I just found out that the child's grade can be a C and still get in. More tips: Check the food level of your fridge before the headmaster comes.
