Every time I have a best friend I lost them within a few years. Why? Because they always joined the wrong crowd that didn't like me, and sometimes even excluded me. (I have ONE exception who has literally been my best friend since the day we were born. Her name is Tori, and I'm really grateful for her.) I feel like they just use me to "spring" to a better group, and then leave me in the dust. It's not like they hate me or anything, but we end up not even trying to see each other anymore.
This has happened three times now (in elementary, middle, in high school). I'm honestly starting to wonder if I'm doing something wrong. Is there any way to save this? I don't want to make the same mistakes when I go to college in the fall.

Well Jessie, I honestly don't know you well enough to know if you're doing something BLATENTLY WRONG. But it could be something as being to nice and letting people walk over you. Not saying that's your case, but that's certainly something I went through. I'm not the most advice worthy at the moment, but I can at least say I know what you're going through. And if this friend was supposedly your "Best Friend" they wouldn't put you through this. You said yourself that this Tori gal is the one exception. You should focus on spending more time with her. Its times like this that show you where you're true loyalties lie, and I think you have something worthy in this friend.

Stick to your very best friend, because they're the best you can really count on.

I agree with Mr. Nibbles. Have you tried talking to your friend about it? If she is worth your time at all, she would give you the chance to voice out what is wrong.
If not, you should move on. A friend that ditches you like that is not a friend at all. You'll meet many more people that will treat you better than that.
