Answer 1

You shouldn't worry too much! In my high school, there are no bullies or cliques, and it wasn't hard for me to find new friends (my four best friends went to different high schools!). I go to a public high school, so I think its more surprising how friendly a place it is. Here is how you should deal with others in the school:

teachers: get your work done on time and don't disrupt the class (at least not often). Teachers are really nice (and lenient) with well-behaved students.

Upperclassman: Don't be afraid to ask a junior or senior with help around the building. Most of us are very friendly. You don't have to worry about any sort of hazing! A word of caution: don't block the hallways, that is the only problem I have with freshman.

Underclassman: Many of these kids are in the same boat as you: everyone is worried about their first day of high school! Be friendly and confident when you talk to other students!

Personally, I didn't find freshman year hard at all. The teachers know that high school is completely new and so they take it pretty easy freshman year, even in most advanced classes.

Good Luck!

trust me!

Answer 3

Highschool is socially more easy then any other years. Middle school is full of immature haters and troublemakers but Most people grow up from that. Keep your head high and mind your own :)
