Decent Essays

Going into 9th grade was a little scary. I did not know where any of my classes were, I did not know a lot of the students, and I did not know any of the teachers. Since I know what is most important for an incoming freshman to do in order to have a successful and fun freshman year, three ways to maintain a successful year is to get ALL work in on time, DO NOT SKIP CLASS OR SCHOOL, and build a good relationship with teachers and classmates.

I didn’t want to make new friends, but by getting over it and talking to some new people, I have met really awesome people that I am glad to call my friends.
