When I came to George School, my biggest fear was that I would lose my friends from middle school. I had a very close group and I thought I might lose connection with them. However, it was easier than I thought to keep in touch with friends from my old school. I think I spend more time with them now than I did during middle school. If you’re like me, and want to keep some of your best friends, try some of these ideas:
- Make a group chat
By far, the biggest reason my friends and I stay connected is over the phone. While a group chat isn’t more preferable than seeing one another in person, it’s an easy way to talk to all of your friends at once. Besides, it makes planning much easier. I get to see my friends so often because one message in the group chat can start a whole day of hanging out with them. - Invite them to campus
My friends have come to GS many times, and it’s been for a number of reasons. Though one of the reasons for my friends coming to campus is to act in my films, there are other ways to keep them involved in your George School life. My friends always come to see the play, for example. Sometimes, a few of them show up just to hang out with my friends from George School. - Introduce them to your George School friends
One of my favorite reasons for keeping in touch with friends from my old school was to see how well they got along with the people I met at GS. Though it’s a lot of people, it’s more fun to spend time with all your closest friends rather than half of them. The best part is that you never have to worry about inside jokes again. When all your GS friends know those from your middle school, they share the same jokes and pastimes.
