I'm gonna be a sophomore, just ended freshman year. 9th grade is NOT bad. Of course the experience is different for everyone, but honestly, high school is a great experience. In 9th grade, the courses are the easiest you'll find them in high school (except maybe second semester of senior year, when the seniors pretty much just mess around), and the people are great. Upperclassmen were not condescending to me or anyone I know who was an underclassmen. I've made friends who are upperclassmen and so have all my friends. You're going to meet a lot of new and different people, and that's a good thing! I made new friends and acquaintances, and thankfully, no enemies. Just be yourself. High school is all about (cheesy as it sounds), finding who you are and where you're going in life. Supplies: you don't need as many as you'd think. I bought a bunch of stuff and now i'm covered for the coming year too. Some classes might have specific requirements. For example, my world geography class required a 5 subject notebook. You'll get a list and your schedule at freshman orientation. Good luck and enjoy!

-don't start trouble with upper class people a lot of freshman get into high school thinking they're cool but really there not. not trying to scare you but a lot of people don't like freshman
-don't wear slutty clothes all guys want in high school is sex its just not worth it
-your friends are going to change a lot! And its not always a good thing
-always try to make new friends in your classes because you never know when you might need someone
-don't go for the hard classes your first year because your going to a new school and your trying to get use to it and make new friends.you can't do that if you have a whole bunch of homework
-9th grade so far was my best year of high school teachers are not hard on you make new friends don't have that much homework

Don't be afraid of being yourself even if some people in highschool may not like you don't change just to fit in people in highschool may be harsh and rude but ignore them it took me till junior year to figure this out but dont get intimidated by the juniors or seniors alot of them are pretty cool so goodluck :)

Be yourself, outgoing, nice! Keep your friends close and your enemies closer! Don't make friends with the wrong people! Don't loose track of your school work cuz you need that in order to graduate! Good grades! Just have fun cuz it's gonna slip by so fast you don't even know!:)

hi :)
well i am now gonna be a senior *woop woop* and let me tell you..
when i first was about to go to highschool as a freshmen, i was sooooo nervous! first day of school, everyone kept staring and i got called "fresh meat" so many times! well i made alot of friends through out the first few weeks. please don't mess up in school! cause it will effect you later on ...... i skipped alot of classes got suspended had straight F's...was in alot of fights... please be organized please don't let highschool drama control your life. i was doing so bad cause i thought i would still graduate, in my sophomore year i got transferd to a continuation school right next to my normal high school. it is were all kids that have really low credits. it's a school of 30 kids. i realized that i messed up and i need to graduate. now i'm a senior that will graduate early . i'm graduating this december :)
good luck on everything! hope this somewhat helped!

Try to make friends with everyone at 1st then after you do that then you can figure out who your crowd of people are but also have people in every class to talk to and not be a loner

get a couple of hooded sweatshirts that have to pocket in the front. They're good to hide erections.
