I’ll be skipping 10th grade english to 11th, I’m afraid i’ll be picked on?

Hello i’m 15 years old, and I excell in English. I’m very shy, and my problem is… I’m afraid the kids will tease me for being in a Juniors class. What if they ask why I’m there? I don’t know what to say without looking big headed. I want to be in 11th grade English, but I’m considering maybe 10th is the best idea…social wise? What would you do? Thanks guys, this means a lot to me.

If you want a challenge, I would move up. If they tease you it will most likely not be too long or just a few kids do so. Most likely though you could make some friends with the older kids.

I personally would move up if I have the opportunity to because those don’t come too often and that wish isn’t granted to everyone. Remember the other kids will just be a year older than you. Not too threatening.

But if it does go hectic, just go see a counselor and drop out back to the 10th grade English.

The way I see it, you’ll be the smarter one, in a class of older classmates. IF you get picked on, simply point out that little fact to them! 😉

With that confidence you probably will be picked on. Grow a backbone and you’ll be fine…This world is for the strong, so be strong! =D
