I'm nervous about going to high school, should I be?

Question

I'm going into grade 9 this year and i'm pretty nerves about the first day of school. What should i expect on the first day? Do i have a reason to be nervous? how was your first day?

Answer 1

Im a sophmore this year and last year i was very nervous, i came from a very small grade school and was going to a huge hs,  teachers will be most likely be understanding if your a little late becaue you had trouble finding a class(it's my secound year and i have diffrent classes and don't know where the are,lol.) Also just be kind and open to meeting new people.I do cross country and that help me met people so getting involved is always good!

  dont worry, good luck

Answer 2

honestly i dont remember ever being nervous about starting high school.the way i saw it was that i just starting yet another year of school.i never got my head wrapped around the whole idea of being in a different environment.

there really isnt anything to be nervous about.at the end of the day you will most likely realize that it was just like the first day of 8th grade.just a different campus.

Answer 3

don't worry. the first day of anything is always scary!... but it always ends up turning out fine. just stay calm and don't get lost! lol

good luck

Answer 4

Good Luck! ;D

Answer 5

If you weren't nervous, there'd be something wrong. Everyone is a bit nervous going into a new and unknown environment. Just look at it as a kind of energy, not necessarily nerves. Know that everyone has this energy on their first day at a new school. It's a good thing. All the entering freshmen have this in common - so it's a good place to start - knowing you are all in the same frame of mind (whether they show it or not). The first day is finding out how much time it takes to get to your new class, do you have time to go to your locker, can you get the lock on and off (practice ahead of time ; ), see if your lunch period is the same as some of your friends and plan to meet them at the cafeteria. Basic stuff. Just be the same person you've always been and the day will be great and new and exciting. Good Luck!! and Have Fun...it's all good.

Answer 7

My first day was a little scary. I remember not knowing exactly where my classes were. You want to catch up with friends and talk with everyone, but yet you have to pay attention in class and listen to what to expect for the year. It will be great. All in all I enjoyed this. Just enjoy your time in high school, I just graduated and realize on how much I missed out on. It goes by so fast, and those words didn't mean as much to me as they do now. Just take it day by day and make the most out of it. It will be fine. Good luck!
