first, don’t let yourself be intimidated by other people. As I told someone before, I don’t understand why underclassmen are afraid of upperclassmen. They can’t do anything to you, and they aren’t that much older than you, 3 years. Second, walk like you belong their. back straight, shoulders back, etc. And introduce yourself to people. If you make the first move, people think you re brave, and might want to talk to you, or it just shows you who to avoid. And don’t sit by yourself. You’ll look like someone to take pity on, which might be good because someone might do something about it, or they might think you are someone not worth wasting their time on. So ask if you can sit with people, or sit near them, and try to include yourself. Hope this helps!

Well in high school, things are a lot bigger. Like the students, teachers, and buildings. You also get more homework than junior high but don’t let that get you down. Millions of students like you are entering high school for the first time. And it can be scary. But just relax. Just be yourself and you can make some life-long friendships. You can make some friends by joining in some after school clubs and sports. And also just by talking to the person beside of you. You can compliment on something they have to strike up a conversation. Also, in high school, you know you have more homework than junior high. So be prepared to do that. Be organized and don’t procrastinate. Doing that will make you feel behind in your classes and you can’t catch up. Just pay attention to your teacher’s lectures, take good notes, and do your homework first before crashing onto the computer. Have a schedule with you or a to-do list. Prioritized your things and tackle big assignments one at a time. And have some fun too. High school is one of the best years of your life. Make it like that and you will enjoy high school.

When I was a sophomore last year, I was scared too. I was the shortest person in my high school. But I got used it and now, I’m used to being around taller people.

good luck!

well it was only your first week of school. you’re gonna have to get used to it, and trust me! it will take time! did you get lost? if so, don’t worry! after the first couple of days you will have prolly already memorized your schedule and know where your classes are. do you hate the people in your classes? it’ll take some time, maybe you had a bad first impression of the people. but just try to get to know them better and they may end up being really cool. do you hate your teachers? again. give it some time. the first week of school for teachers is pretty hectic, but after a couple of days or weeks, it’ll all fall in place. all you really have to do is be confident. that’s how you be strong. don’t listen to what other people say about you [especially upperclassmen] if you look confident and act confident then you won’t have any problems!

good luck =]

Just remember that it’s only 4 years compared to the rest of your life…and that “social labels” really don’t exist much outside of high school and no one cares if you were “popular” or not. People, especially ones that hire for great jobs, aren’t going to be looking at whether or not you followed the fashion rules or did the “in” things.

I’m not going to lie to you, freshmen have it rough. The fact is that you are on the bottom of the totem pole and some upperclassmen will feel like they have a right to mess with you. Just try to get more involved in activities, and try to avoid those snotty upperclassmen, you’ll do just fine.

Get involved in your school. Join some clubs or sport teams and try to go with your friends to games. When you’re involved in something you’re proud of you tend to have more confidence. best of luck
