I'm in 8th grade and I'm going to high school soon and I know there is tennis there but I have no experience and I really want to try it. I don't know where I can look where it won't be too expensive to learn. Oh by the way I'm 13 and a girl. Well I want to learn how to play. So if anyone has any advice for me thanks so much!

They should have a list of courses that are being available to kids, teens adult in the spring, summer and fall.
While it may not be 100% free you should be able to afford it. More often then not there's usually beginner and intermediate tennis programs on offer. You should also do a google search and see if there any camps for kids, teens for tennis in your area or those offering lessons that aren't expensive.
Do you know anybody at school who plays? If so you could always strike up a deal with them for instruction. Talk to your gym teacher about your desire to play because he/she may have some answers for you or at least an idea of how to get started on your own.
