Answer 1

Don't be nervous just hang with the guys u hung with in Middle school and I know all ur oals might not be in the same classes with u but u r ushually in classes that r the same age as u so u are going 2 know sum1. But the first day is always hard cuz sumtimes u can't find classes r get ur locker open but it is nothing 2 panic about it just relax and u will be find trust me.

Answer 2

I'm a junior in high school and depending on what school you are going to, high school is a lot bigger and more crowded... you also have to do a lot more to get good attention from teachers...work harder and get good grades...because you NEED teachers to be on your good side because they are the ones who write recommendations for college. Use the first week of school to make friends, talk to the people who sit next to you in classes because most people don't know each other and its easier to make friends that way... remember that most everyone in nervous and excited so don't be afraid to show it.. also don't rely on others to start conversations because they usually don't... just remember to make friends during the first few weeks because once the first month passes its harder because everyone knows each other by then..and the worst part it so become a freshman outcast..harsh reality...but trust me...you will be fine and you will love high school its a great opportunity and take full advantage of it! good luck!!!

Answer 3

high school isn't even that bad.

I think it's much better than middle school.

Seriously, you have nothing to worry about.

Just picture it as a new school with some

of your middle school friends.

[cause not all your friends are going to the same high school]

it's pretty cool.

& don't be scared to make new friends.

While your in class just talk to the people that sit

around you. That's pretty much it.

You'll have friends in no time.

Answer 4

High school isn't the way a lot of people portray it, or at least the ones I've seen aren't. I'm a junior in high school so I know from experience that it's not this big scary place where people are just waiting to pick on the freshman. Just be yourself and be friendly towards everyone. Talk to the people who sit next to you in class. Also, make small talk with the people who have lockers around you. Those are the two easiest ways to make friends. Just remember, you're not the only freshman who is nervous about high school, so if there aren't many people starting conversation with you, you should be the one to go up and talk to them. In a couple of days you're going to be wondering why you were ever nervous about high school. Just keep an open mind and be nice to people, you'll make friends in no time. Good luck!

Shy is not always a bad thing.  I tend to be shy til i know the person.  Teachers really like it if your shy like you won't talk over them but youl participate in discussions.
