awww ok i remember being just like you super nevous for middle school, but after just the first day i realized it really wasnt so scary.

i remember my 5th grade teacher said that elementary school was just teaching you how to learn. meaning it was only to prepare you for what was to come in middle and high school. as far as academics come dont worry about it. i worked much harder in elementary school than i did in middle school.

ok friends, dont be shy! i met most of my very best friends in middle school. on the first day make a point of at least saying hi to 5 new people. although i didnt make most of my new friends in six grade in seventh and eighth i did and i wish that i had known those people sooner. it probably hard for you to picute yourself w/ new friends, but after the year is over youll wonder how you went 10 years w/o knowing them.

clothes? dont worry bout it. you arnt really expeted to dress that much differently. just wear what you like.

gym haha that was an interesting experiecnce that honestly i am glad is over. but again not to worry. it sucks yes, but you have to get through it just like everyone eles. pretty much as long as you dress out, and make some effort to participate in what is going on youll get an A. just make sure to dress out!!!

middle school is a fun time where you dont have to work too hard, and get to meet tons of new people. have fun and most importantly dont lose who you are!!

hope this helps =]

Not to worry, middle school is not a bad time. You have much more freedom than in elementary school, and you’re not treated like a baby. If you have a big school, then you probably have about every type of person there. I think you should come on the first day dressed how you want to. Don’t worry about other people, the choice is up to you. Making friends is fairly easy, too. You’ll soon find that the people who act, dress, and talk like you will usually flock to you. Just talking to people helps; you’ll find out who shares the same interests as you. Gym class is easier than it seems, too. Sometimes, you even play games in your gym class. Good luck =D

I am a middle school teacher, but I am only 24 so I think I can help you.

The best thing you can do is always come to school prepared. Always have your pencil, notebook, and text book for every class. This will keep your teacher very happy… and you want a happy teacher. As for gym class, make sure you practice your locker combination this summer so you are a pro when you only have 5 minutes to change before the bell rings. I would also keep a spare deodorant in your locker. You definitely don’t want to smell in your next class!!

As for friends, make sure you find friends who like you for who you are. Never write notes about them, they sometimes find them or hear about them from other kids and then you may have lost a good friend. And, as for clothes, a good pair of jeans and colorful tops are the best way to go. They never go out of style.

Well, make sure that you study. That is key. You need to study so that you will be prepared for high school. Try to find a couple of good friends that you can hang out with. For clothes, American Eagle is a good place to shop for school clothes. Kind of preppy, but not too much. Gym at my school wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. The dressing room may sound intimidating, but it really is not at all. Just do what your coaches tell you to do in gym, and you will do good. Try your hardest to balance your time equally and responsibly. Good luck, and don’t be nervous.

P.S. You may not be old enough to use this site if you are just entering middle school.

don’t be nervous. there is nothing to be nervous about so it’s like you are nervous about nothing.

School is nothing different than elementary school except you get to switch classes which is fun.

friends don’t change yourself to be popular people will like you for who you are not your stuff.

wear clothes that are comfortable. Babydoll shirts and skinny jeans are in style. Bermuda shorts are too. Look through a teen magazine to find else what else is in style.

during gym if you have to dress out (wear clothes to school then change in a locker room) CHANGE just because your friends don’t get change because they don’t like what you are doing most of the time they will change the activity to something everyone likes.

teachers are there to help you don’t be nervous to ask for help because there is always someone else who has the same question.

It is a little frightening the first day but you will get used to it just act yourself, don’t change who you are just because you are starting middle school. Be friendly to people and make friends, not enemies. You will love middle school, don’t be afraid.

Always, always, always be yourself. You will find that although this is very cliche, it is the best piece of advice you will ever be given.

School is a place to learn, though, keep that in mind. You will regret it later on if you don’t.

Good luck, I just graduated middle school, it is a lot of fun!
