get in touch with the school- they should have a new starter pack, open evening, induction days etc
Tell your neice there is nothing to worry about- she'll be fine

Well, I go to a high school 7-12 not middle school, but I think I can help. I just finished eighth grade. Just tell her to be nice and outgoing. She should get involved in sports and some organizations because that's a great way to meet ppl with the same interests as you. And don't let her forget about studies, because I got into the Honors program at my school and everybody in it, we're all friends or at least acquaintances.

well i think i can help, seeing how i just got out of middle school.. there si nothing you can really do to prepare for it, all i can say is that its the thrill of ur life.. it's a very emotional time, and there are soo.. many up's and down's in middle school... i remember with girls there was a different girl problem almost everyday.. tell her to be herself, and try to make new firends, and if she has problems middle schools have some of the best teachers and guidence counselors, so u can talk to any adult there... also tell her to do her homework and get it in on time because as long as you do, u will get good grades, and the school year will go by smoothly... i hope this helps,

Tell her not to be nervous, alot of her old friends should be going to that school as well, unless she has moved to another area. Tell her to try and mingle a bit and not to be so scared. If you seem scary, that is the ones who get picked on. Tell her if someone so happens to pick on her or say something to her out of the way, say your mother (ha ha) and keep walking. She will do fine, tell her to have fun.

Tell her to chill and just be herself. Middle school is just older kids than she's been with. She will be the lowest on the pole, but that's okay. Tell her to laugh if and when someone picks on her. Don't let things get to her. Tell her just to enjoy herself and not worry about the older kids. She will be fine. It's scary, I know, but once she gets there and gets settled in she will probably love it. Tell her good luck for me!

Well, I started middle school in the middle of the year. I went to a grade school for part of my 6th grade year. i know it can be overwhellming. I'm going into 8th grade(omigosh! I'm going into 8th grade!) so, do what your supposed to do, try to get a tour of the school. and remember, the other kids are also new.

well i just started middle school last year its no as tough as people say i mean people dont really push people in the lockers unless u go to a really rude school but i think all she needs to do is relax and get all her supplies and have fun with it because middle school is awesome!!
so just relax and enjoy your first year of middle school.

Make sure you tell her the things she sees on TV about middle school are not true.Like people getting stuffed in lockers,heads getting put in the toilet,and fights most people just talk trash.

Jr high is scary at first. but the 3rd day its so easy. tell her to get to class on time and buy a 5 subject notebook so she don't have carry as much.
