Beyond her not having class with some of the upperclassmen, or other student or her traveling back and forth from Los Angeles to Salem, I'm thinking that Miranda spent the majority of her time at school in ghost form. Also, it would make sense if she only really associated with a small group of students, and as a result she would have built up a reputation as a wall flower.
Not that it matters right now in-game (since Eric's busy in the Danger Room), but I threw out a flyer in Quarterback's writeup that Eric and Miranda might know each other from 'normal' life (both being rich and famous young southern Californians, though she's a year younger than he is).
