Have you ever thought of a time when you were very nervous or anxious? Well, like myself and other people, such as freshman, starting high school and not knowing anything about it was one of those times. As I now know, high school is challenging when starting your freshmen year. However, with the help of friends and family, I have learned a few tips on how freshmen can survive high school which I will share with you today. First off, when starting out at a new school, you may not know a lot of people.

Maybe your friends from middle school are going to a different high school, or even if you know other freshmen, you might not know many upperclassmen. This is why it is very important to attend freshman orientations. These are helpful not only because you learn your way around the building and get to meet some of your teachers, but you also get to meet fellow freshmen. When you talk to people at orientation, you’ll probably find that a lot of them are feeling just like you are. They’re all new to the school and don’t know what to expect either. Talking to your classmates about a common concern could even spark a new friendship.

Secondly, you should learn more about your teachers. Some freshman teachers are nice and kind at times. However, in order to avoid their negativity, you must go by all of their rules. Different teachers will have different expectations. Learn what they are and don’t make your high school experience rough, by trying to make your own rules.
