High school secret societies

Okay kiddo, so you know how in school there are groups of friends that like to hang out together? Well, sometimes these groups decide to make a special group called a secret society.

These secret societies are called "secret" because they keep their membership and activities hidden from everyone else in the school. They might have special symbols or handshakes to identify each other.

Sometimes these societies do good things, like volunteer work or raising money for charity. But other times they might do things that are not so good, like bullying or excluding others.

It's important to remember that being in a secret society might feel exciting or special, but it's not really fair to keep things secret from others. Everyone should be included and treated kindly, no matter what group they belong to.
