High school can be brutal and cliquish. If you are breaking into a group it could take time to be accepted, or maybe you'll remain on the outskirts. Advice?
Activities I think are important because they give structure. Then you are actually doing things together - dances, hiking, biking, concerts, sport, whatever your common interest. Try initiating things and doing the organizing. There's usually a lack of positive leadership. People will self select. Build your relationships around these people. Hanging out sometimes is OK but not the greatest and its hard to overcome the cliques.
