My best advice to you would be to join a club, if you have any interests. You can also try bonding with your teachers. I was good friends with my teachers last year (eighth grade) and found out how funny and nice they were. I would also visit them before school & at lunch and help them grade papers and stuff. Oh and by the way, I was failing most of my classes and they still enjoyed having my company, so it’s not like they liked me just because I was a straight A student. I certainly wasn’t xD haha. Yeah so join a club, or bond with your teachers. Good luck and I hope things turn out better for you!

Go to the office and ask for a map of the school. I’m sure your teachers would understand if you got lost, since it sounds like a big place.

Don’t let the upper classmen get to you. It doesn’t matter what grade you’re in, there will always be rude people and not all upper classmen are like that. Just be yourself, but speak up when you feel there is a need to. Let them get the message that just because you’re a freshman doesn’t mean you can be pushed around or anything. Just ignore their rude comments.

With time, you’ll make new friends. You won’t be a loner, it’s kind of hard to. You can join a team or club to meet more people.

The homework load will range from a reasonable to large amount. High school are the crucial years because colleges look at your grades. So work hard, it’ll certainly pay off. Don’t stress too much though because that never helps.

I felt the same way when I entered high school. I didn’t know anybody in any of my classes, i was overwhelmed by homework, and nobody seemed really friendly. But once you start working on group projects and discussions, you’ll be able to meet new people who might turn out to be pretty amazing. Time will tell. I hope this helps, but if you feel really uncomfortable, talking to your parents and/or guidance counselor about switching classes or doing anything else to help the problem might be a good idea.

Good luck!

When I started high school I was miserable. I had just moved in the middle of 8th grade and still hadn’t made a single friend, I was super shy and scared to talk to anyone. When high school started I hated it so much. I got lost every day for about a week or 2, I had no idea how to use my locker, my classes were awful, my teachers were annoying, everyone around me already had their own groups of friends. I was so depressed for a while, but after a few weeks things got better, I started talking to other people in my classes and I got used to all the homework and the lockers and everything and I was happier. I’ve still never fully enjoyed high school like it seems everybody else did, but I was no longer completely miserable. Give it some time and you’ll get the hang of things and meet some new people.

I know it probably seems impossible to you right now, but a lot of people go through this at some point in their life, whether just going into middle school, high school, college, or a job. When I first started high school in 9th grade, I had no friends in my classes, and I had to listen to all of my friends talk about who they had classes with. I was literally in tears for months.

I know you’re having a bad time right now, but honestly, the only thing that can be said is it DOES get better. PLEASE don’t do anything drastic. And also, in a situation like yours, you might decide not to do work and just give up in school. Don’t. That was the worst thing I did in freshman year. I had to repeat 9th grade english in 10th grade because I did that. I felt so sorry for myself that I didn’t care.

About your 6th hour class, are you sure you’re supposed to be in that class? If it’s advanced, and you don’t like it, I’d suggest switching to a lower class. You’ll get a much better grade and be with people your age. Also, the fact that the bus is so early is unacceptable. Your bus is supposed to come, at most, 10 minutes early. If that keeps happening tell your mom to call transportation and explain the situation.

Getting lost happens to everyone. As I repeatedly tell, on my first day freshman year, my friends and I were searching for the gym for ten minutes, only to realize the gym was downstairs and we were still upstairs. You’ll know your way around completely in about two weeks, and teachers are sympathetic the first week or so, so don’t worry about it.

If you need to talk, feel free to email me. =]

I read your edit, really sucks that you can’t switch out. Maybe you can have your parents call the school? Sometimes they’re more responsive to parents. Also, I know my school is like that in the beginning of the year because of so many schedule changes, but after taht they get to less important class changes.

However, I’d suggest staying in that class, it’s not about the upperclassmen, it’s about the kids you’re going to actually know how to take care of when you grow up! Believe me, that class will help you so much if you want kids, which I suppose you do since you’re in it. =]

The fact that your school year has started off on the wrong foot really sucks. But it doesn’t forcaste the rest of your highschool days. Buddy up with someone. There’s other freshmen in your shoes who are looking for friends too! People don’t say highschool’s some of the best years of their lives for nothin’!!! You will get into a routine sooner or l8r, meet more friends, and hopefully get involved in school spirit. Be more open–soon you’ll be havin’ the time of your life=P

high school always blows the first couple days. and for some, the first few weeks.

i didnt talk to anyone for like my first 2 weeks of high school. i sat alone at lunch and everything.

but eventually through your classes youll get to know some people, some youll like ad some you wont. just try to be friendly to people around you and stuff. hopefully theyll start talking to you and make that better.

and dont mind the rude girls, theyre worthless to worry about.

and for getting lost, if youve got time after school or have your mom or someon pick you up a bit late one day and walk around a bit. get to know the place yourself. it should help.

hope everything turns out well!
