text: Lastly, doing activities outside of school is also a great way to make friends. Activities such as sports, SCA, or any hobbies can be a good way to spark new friendships. These friends could be long or short-term but, by having friends can produce more interacting with others and more participation in extracurricular activities. The only downside is, horsing around or being engaged in conversation while participating in activities. However, students who are not very social with others could make friends an have someone to support them when they need it. This could also benefit others participating because they could engage in conversation, depending on the activities, and have the opinion of that students.
