Expert Answer

Let your parents and teachers know how you feel. You can suggest alternatives that focus on making the day enjoyable without putting you in the spotlight. For example, you could bring a small treat or lunch to share with your classmates or choose a quiet activity that you enjoy, like reading or making crafts with your friends.
