[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter just started HS this week, and is extremely depressed that she did not end up in any classes or lunch with any of her (few) friends.  She is extremely shy, and making friends has always been very difficult for her.  The friends she has now, she has either known since elementary school, or she has become friends with them, through one of her existing friends.  I know most people will say, that this is a good opportunity for her to learn to make friends from scratch, but the problem is, that doesn't happen.  Every time she has had a class or activity where she didn't have an existing friend, she hasn't made any.  However, if she has at least one other person who she is friendly with in the environment, she really comes out of her shell and interacts with other people.  I know people will think I'm being dramatic, but I'm honestly afraid, that she won't make any new friends this year, and lose the friends she does have since she doesn't see them anymore.  Would it be totally unreasonable for me to ask the counselor if she can be switched into at least a lunch (the school has four) with one of her friends? [/quote]

I should add the school bases lunch on a kids 4th period class, so for her to switch lunches, they would have to switch her 4th period class. [/quote]
