high school
I'm going into high school this year as a freshman, and I'm SO nervous. I'm scared that I won't have anyone to talk to and I won't do well in my classes (I got all honors), so can anyone please tell me what high school is like ? Like, the classes, teachers, classmates, etc.. And any tips to make friends and do well in the classes ? kthnx.

Well no doubt your classes are going to be hard since your taking honors. As for friends, introduce yourself to a couple new kids and you may wind up being friends with them. And, I agree, teachers can be rough. A way to get on their good side is ask them constantly about what you can do to better yourself in that class. Teachers love when a student expresses an interest in the particular subject. Freshman "jitters" are normal. I'm going to be a sophmore and I had MAJOR freshman jitters. You'll get over them within a few weeks. Just be yourself and you'll succeed. Good luck! Hope I helped!

High School can be hard at times, but other than that I think it's the same as middle school. Sure the classes are harder but school is school. Being a freshman can be scary, but there are others who are going through the same thing as you.

High school! You should be super excited. Welcome to the best 4 years of your life! However it is normal to be nervous. Of course your classes will be harder than junior high/middle school, but that's just how it is. School gets a little harder each year. Plus if you're an honor student you should be fine as long as you stay focused. All I can say is do whatever you can to not get caught up in the stupid drama. It's sometimes inevitable, but try to stay away from mean girls. If you have some friends who are going to the same school as you, hang out with them for now. If you don't, just be super friendly, smile and try to make friends. And don't worry too much about getting a boyfriend until you have some good friends. As for teachers, you'll probably have some mean ones, some nice ones but you learn to deal with it. There's so much to look forward to in high school. Homecoming dances, football games, and awesome new friends. Good luck and if you have any more questions, ask because I'd love to help!

I am gonna be a sophomore this year and I remember my freshman year being a fresh start for me. I had almost no friends from my time in middle school so it was like I was starting over. Don't worry about a thing, just got an pick some people to hang out with and try and get to know everyone. That's what I did and I pretty much had friends all over. Just talk to people and get to know em, it's easy. As for your classes, just do your best (you must be smart considering you have all honors) and you will do fine. And as for what highschool is like, it rocks, plain and simple. Good luck and hope this help you!

High School's not as big of a deal as you think it'll be. I'm gonna be junior when school starts this year. The classes vary depending on what kind of schedule your school is on. The kinds of teachers you'll have depend a lot on the class you're in and what kinds of kids are in the class. Since you're in all honors classes, you shouldn't have much of a problem with kids acting up in your classes. Those kids will probably all be in the gen. ed. classes. As for doing well in classes, do all of your work, turn it all in, and make a half-assed effort at participating during class. Making friends comes a lot easier to you if you try not to worry about it so much. If you're just yourself, you'll meet people who like you for you, not because you did something to impress them.

Well I'm with Laura down below, it's sooo much easier then you would think. Plus I'm one of those awesome friends she met!! Haha, anyway, the classes get harder, but the worst for me was science. You know how your middle school teachers always warn you about these really tough teachers and blah blah blah, well my science teacher (though I liked her, and I hope I get her again this following year..she also teaches biology which I'll be taking) But other than my science teacher, the rest of them weren't as strict and as hard as you would think. Just pay attention. It was just like when you entered middle school. You probably thought it would be a lot harder, but once you learned your way around, and got into the hang of it, it became so much easier, well same with high school.
I don't even remember how I made friends. I remember I wasn't as great of friends with some people when I was in their classes 1st semester, but we still talked and stuff, so by the time it was 2nd semester and I had classes with them again we became much better friends like Laura (lilmisslaurafaye) and my friend Jessica, and I guess a few others. But it starts out with people you already knew being in your class and you talk to them, then you just say hi to the people sitting around you, and somehow you get to know them.
How did you make you're new friends going from 6th to 7th grade, how did you make them going from 7th to 8th, same exact way.
Don't be nervous, a lot of teachers in middle school (junior high) tell you that you'll have tougher teachers, and that you'll have more homework, and harder classes, but really I thought middle school was a bit more tough than high school. As long as you pay attention, study, do the work, and make new friends it'll all turn out fine!!! Trust me!! If you need anything, just post one to the inbox!! <3 Kate

Teachers: Pay attention (or fake it well) and be on your best behavior til you get to know them better. Then act accordingly. Or ask around. You can usually get advice on teachers from upperclassmen.
Classes usually aren't too bad... A tip: Ask around about honers and AP. Many times, they are easier, because the teachers see you as more knowledgabl;e and mature, so they don't think they need to give you so much work. But others give you more. So, ask any upperclassmen you meet.
To do well: Do the work assigned on time. Study when you need to.
Be yourself around classmates. You'll make friends soon enough. Also, join clubs, or try out for sports. Shared interests build fast friendships.
