I live in a relatively peaceful town (Except for a school shooting a couple years ago) So I doubt that my stuff will be vandalized or stolen. But I am a little worried about Juniors and Seniors and how they feel about Freshmen. I am a 5ft 6 scrawny white boy so I should probably worry about things like that, but on the other hand most of the kids in my grade are also scrawny white boys and girls. Also I am not prone to causing trouble the worst punishment I have ever got was a bus write up that was declined by my school guidance counselor.

i was exactly like this going into high school, cept a little shorter. i befriend most if not all of them within a week or two. the ones here were really cool with everyone pretty much

i guess it just depends on your area, i wouldnt worry too much :)

Plant child research of yourself on your teachers' computers.


Get it in cool with the stoners.

The teachers that I had usually gave us well over an hour of homework. The guidance counselors at the high-school were surprised when we said it was common for us to get 2 hours of homework a night.
That isn't all that much.

idk about you guys and your highschools but mine has an optional fifth year for highschool. we call it super-seniors. if your school has this option i recommend taking it, especially if don't do well in one of your school years.

Don't be the guy who took five years to finish high school.

Well It usually depends on the exact day. Some nights I have 4-6 hours of homework while other nights I have under an 1 hour and a half of homework. The two hours was basically just me trying to average them together it might be more or less than that amount.

uhhh.
that's not what this is. you still technically graduate after your fourth year you still receive your highschool diploma. it's optional by all means. my school doesn't use the system where if you fail you have to retake everything. you just continue on and you can take your failed class over the summer or in place of an elective in your next year. the fifth year is there so when a college looks onto a students records, it's more interesting, and also so the students are more prepared for college.

Don't have autism
