ASchool is a place where lots of kids your age make new friends, but it’s not the only place! You’re the one in control of how you socialize, so it’s all about deciding what you want to do. Volunteeri­ng is a great way to surround yourself with new people. You can also consider extracurri­cular activities that cater to your interests. The rules vary state by state, but some public schools allow homeschool­ers to join their sports teams, so that’s an option you can look into. And let’s not forget social media! There are tons of groups online specially focused on connecting homeschool­ed students with each other. Finding a community to be a part of takes time, so don’t stress yourself out about not making a best friend immediatel­y. You’ll find your tribe in time!
