 === The best way to make a friend on NSA is to start a thread in the Student Channels or to add them to a Teams chat. ===
-The Student Teams/Channels are places for the students to get together and enjoy themselves. Some Teams you can find at NSA include the elementary school (''grades 4-5''), middle school (''grades 6-8''), high school (''grades 9-12''), as well as sub-channels within those. You can post anything in there from the latest event in your life, something super random, or adventure threads! Adventure threads (also known as [[How to Start an Adventure|Role Plays]]) are threads that can get a bit unrealistic and wild but are very fun.
+The Student Teams/Channels are places for the students to get together and enjoy themselves. Depending on your grade, you will either be automatically added to the Elementary School, Middle School, or High School "building." (I think the technical name is ''team''?) Each of these buildings contains channels that you can post in, such as the Courtyard for general discussion, the Flagpole for pictures of meetups, and more. High Schoolers also have the option to join clubs, such as the Music Club, STEM Club, and others!

	Elbow pic - Not exactly a 'term,' as much as it is a tradition. When two NSA students by the names of Christe Bout and Raegan Allinder met up in the physical world, there was a picture they took in which Christe was awkwardly touching Raegan's elbow. Since then, it has been a tradition (aka, requirement U_U) for two NSAers who meet to take an elbow picture, in which they touch each others' elbows, touch elbows together, etc., just anything featuring elbows, really.
