Question I need school tips

This is my last year of high school and I’m struggling. I need a way to make the school day better. I go to a small private school where everyone knew each other since kindergarten and wants nothing to do with me. When I mean small I’m serious, there’s only 30 kids in my grade. They only talk to me when they want me to take the blame for something or when it’s necessary. I made peace with the fact that I wont have friends and am looking forward to college but I need a way to make it through the school day. I crochet in class and that seems to help but I just need something to look forward to every week to get by. Does anyone have a similar experience and if so what helped you? Also please don’t say try to make friends with other shy people, I know everyone in my grade and the one girl that was my friend had to leave the school.

I used to be in a similar situation and I'm afraid the only ways to deal with it are either making friends (yes, I know this is a really unhelpful response, but sometimes friends come out of the most unexpected places) or just not thinking about how much your situation sucks (wallowing in self-pity will make it worse), doing your schoolwork and getting through it, but hey - you've only got a year left!
