Remember that you starting over completely. You have a blank slate. Who you are in grade school doesn't matter. I hated grade school -- I was picked on relentlessly and had a rumor spread about me that I tried to kill myself. Everyone believed it, but no one cared--they laughed instead. High school was completely different though and I loved every minute of it. I was involved in community service, cheerleading, was elected to prom court, and graduated 5th in my class. It's all about how you approach it.
Keep an open mind, have a sense of humor, and find a good group of friends to hang out with. Get involved in clubs or sports as soon as possible. Most importantly, be yourself, and enjoy the 4 years while they last. They'll go by more quickly than you can imagine.

Well, I can give you the same advice I gave my son. This is where it all begins. New school, new friends, new teachers, etc. this is where you can make your mark. As entering as a freshman, don't overdo it with too many extra activities, concentrate on your schoolwork, join some clubs, try out for some sports, but have fun doing it. Good luck.. I am sure your high school years will be some of the best of your life.

Don't be afraid to explore. Join a club or team you enjoy, take a course you're interested in, see what the school has to offer and take advantage of it.
At the same time, remember to be your own person. As a Senior, I've seen many people being swayed to do things they don't prefer. Be ready to make choices and decisions.
But at the same time, and perhaps most important of all, remember to keep an open mind. Accept people for who they are, don't judge.
Best of luck in High School.

Resist peer pressure. Use the values that ur parents have given you. Use proper judgment and don't let friends tell u 2 do something u know in ur heart is wrong or dangerous. Keep education ur top priority and get accustomed 2 teachers-they'll really help u out when it comes time 4 those college applications. Believe in urself and set high goals, but don't get discouraged if things don't work out. Life is about making mistakes and then learning from them. Know who ur real friends are and have fun! Enjoy high school because it'll go by super fast. Good blessings!

Study. Don't do sex or drugs. Finish high school. Read Mere Christianity by C. S. Lewis

Stay in school and you'll be cool. Try not to hang with the wrong friends and also try to stay away form drugs. Do your home work and love your girlfriend.

Be yourself. Relax, it's not as bad as you're anticipating. Keep up on your studies and enjoy the next 4 years.

about wat? well highschools always scarry but you soon get used to it i know it's a cliche thing to say but it's true you'll eventually get used to it. If you're still having trouble try and talk to someone about it like the school councellor or a teacher that u like i'm sure they'll be happy to help you out
