I’m getting super nervous. I’m also preparing as much as I can, which involves reading textbooks, doing tutorial worksheets and taking pre-lecture notes.
It finally feels real 😣
Congrats, you did it! You survived three years of middle school, as well as the onset of puberty. But now, it’s time for an even scarier event. High school. Here’s a collection of all the resources I could find about surviving high school, specifically your first year of it.

Know how much they’re required to pay you, how many breaks you’re required to take, and the limits of what they can make you do.

I always recommend talking to counselors and teachers, as they’re on your side and can make school a lot easier (having a relationship with them will also help when you need letters of recommendation for jobs, internships, college applications, etc.). Don’t forget to join some clubs! They’re fun, and a great way to make new friends.
Last but not least, GO TO ORIENTATION! It’s literally just there to help you, and will help you learn about your school, teachers, and classmates.
Good luck at high school! My ask box and messages are always open, and I love making new friends or giving advice.
