I am scared for the first day of middle school

Question

Can anyone help me? I am changing schools to the middle school, going out of my small catholic elementry school.

Answer 1

First thing you should do is relax. Don't be mean to anyone, but stand up for yourself. And be yourself. You will attract friends who really want to be around you. Also, remember, school is a place for education, so don't get too caught up in anything else such as too much drama or fashion. Concentrate on your education, and have fun while you're at it! :)  

Answer 2

it's just school, and people are just people.

be yourself, it will be cool.

don't overthink.

Answer 3

Relax, be friendly, stay out of other people's business, don't talk bad about anyone and you will be the one who gains in the end.

Answer 4

Preparation! Get organised, make sure you have everything you need for your new school incl uniform, pe kit, new pencils etc.

Is anyone else going from your old school? Arrange to hang out with someone else who is moving up on the first day. If you have friends who aren't going to same school make sure you stay in touch, get phone numbers etc

When you start, try and remember key places like library, toilets, canteen etc, to help you learn your way around the place.

To make friends be friendly :) Smile, take an interest in those around you, comment on their bag, pencil case etc, anything to get conversation going. Find out about lunch and after school clubs and get involved.

Good Luck!

Lidide,

I am entering middle school also this year. I'm very nervous, I mean very very nervous and anxious. I'm sure both of us will do fine this school year. You know, Liddie, if you ever need anything, let me know. I'll be glad to help you whenever you need it.

Good luck!
