Going into 8th grade?

Question

I have moved to America from England and I am going into 8th grade. Tell me what kind of things to expect as I have been in homeschooing for almost two years.

Answer 1

Cafeteria food;

teachers nagging about bathroom breaks;

Teachers yelling all the time;

ignorant students;

Bad Students;

Not as much privleges as youre used to.

Answer 2

nothing really, kids are really immature that age, I got picked on so if your a geeky kid expect that, otherwise if you are into sports, and things like that you should be ok. I was into computers, and was picked on from the start. It's a classification thing.

Answer 3

8th grade is easy, its like a "break" year, its nothing new to you. just take it easy ans get ready to be at the bottom of the chain next year.

Answer 4

Don't tell kids you were home schooled.  Kids will get all weird from that.  Just be yourself, and you'll have lots of friends in no time.  Welcome to America!

Answer 5

Kids thinking theyre cool because they got suspended, bad cafeteria food, getting picked on (sometimes), teachers going crazy because some people wont shut up...you know im way off but some stuff is real. Its not really hard just play sports and youll pretty much fit in. If youre going to a private school its not bad at all and if your going to a public school expect people that think theyre up above everyone else. You really shouldnt worry until you get to high school. Oh and expect rumors to pop out of nowhere!!!!
