First off, relax. It'll be ok. I know cramps hurt, but there are ways to relieve the pain.
Grab yourself either some Motrin, Midol, or your favorite pain reliever and pop two pills.
If you don't have any one hand, the Thermacare wraps are the best things in the world! You can wear one for up to 8 hours, and it'll provide heat to your stomache all day long. It's like wearing a heating pad all day without the worry of getting burned. I suggest getting these. That way, if you have a period while at school, you can at least wear one of these pads (they'll never see it under your clothes) and have some comfort all day long.
If you can't get to a store to get the thermacare wraps, a heating pad helps. So does a warm bath or even a hot water bottle. If you take the bath option, grab a magazine, make some hot chocolate to drink, and relax in the tub. By the time your bath is over, the pain medicine you took should've already kicked in, and you shouldn't have too much pain by now.

Go to the pharmacy/drugstore and ask for period pain medicaiton. There are some really good types that target it exactly and stop the pain very well.
If you can't do that, try general pain killers, in combination with a heat pack or something.

Try taking some Advil or tylonal or ibuprofen. I just got my period too. I took some tylonal and I felt better, but medicine is not the cure. Just lay down on your stomach when you get cramps. I know they hurt, but they're not gonna go away. Just make sure you're comfy at all times, so the pain won't be that bad. if cramps are really bad and hurting so much go to your docter. he/she should help control them maybe, or give you some medicine to help the pain. you're gonna get them no matter wat. I'm soo sorry ur in pain!

...There once was a commercial for bloating and cramps...the product is: MIDOL!
Having your period is no as bad as it is made out to be! I mean...we get to make men scared of us for a week!
