This brand new app makes finding a seat in the school cafeteria a lot easier especially for shy or new students.

'Sit With Us' was created by 16-year-old Natalie Hampton after sitting alone at lunch throughout middle school. She started this app as an anti-bullying campaign, because no one should feel alone or become a target for bullying.

This app is great - not only is it easy to use, but it's private so no other students need to know you're on it.

Students are also encouraged to become lunch ambassadors and invite other people to come sit at their table if they need.

Students looking for a place to sit just have to open the app or use their email and locate their lunch group.

Another cool feature I love about 'Sit With Us' is their open lunch events where students are invited to mingle and make new friends.

The app is free for iPhones, but if you are an Android you'll have to use an email address.
