Do I have to bring all of the books that the school has given me on the first day of school?

I’ve moved here from Brazil and everything is different around here in America. So, do I have to bring all the books that the school gave me on the first day of school? I’m a 10th grader,btw.

I don’t wanna look weird carrying all of the books on the first day. Besides, the books are SO SO heavy.

Do you have a locker? If so, you can always put it in there. If not, many teachers don’t use books the first day, but SOME do. You can never be sure. You can always call the teacher/school in the morning or the previous day before school starts and ask them. Or, if you have any similar aged neighbors/friends, you can ask them. Honestly, you probably won’t use all of your books the first day, but you might use one. You never know. You can even just ask the school secretary who picks up the phone, as she probably has a bit of a clue as well. Good luck! Even if you end up not taking it, and then end up needing it the first day, most likely it’ll be fine. You can just borrow an extra one or share with a person next to you. Most teachers aren’t going to rip your head off the first day. :o) That part comes later. Hehe, just kidding! Good luck!

Yeah books can be so heavy!!! Just bring them in the morning, and store them in a locker near your classes and that way you can pick up one or two that you need for the class and leave the others in the locker. Just make sure you have a lock. Good luck!!

Well in my high school we never got our books until the first week we were already in school, thats strange to me that they gave you your books before hand. anyway i wouldnt bring them but i just started college and i made a big mistake by not bringing my books on the first day, we already started on chapter 1 on the first day!

maximum instructors will inform you once you elect your books. maximum won’t ask for them on the 1st day of school. Plus, many colleges will inform you to maintain your books at residing house and that they might have a university room set for you there.

im in middle school, not high school, but we got our books during the first week of school, and we got our lockers just before lunch on the first day of school. until then we just had to carry our backpacks around with us, but it wasn’t too hard. i suggest you just take everything with you until you know whats going on, just in case. 😉
