When coming to high school you quickly learn that you have a lot more freedom than you did in junior high. You can eat anywhere on campus and hangout with any social group you won't.

Having good relationships with your teachers could prove to be beneficial in the long run for scholarship and college application recommendation letters. The rising freshman class

I never would have thought that ninth grade year would be the toughest year of my life. I went from being able to do all kinds of physical activities to being on crutches. I was on crutches two weeks longer than my surgeon expected. Even after the crutches nothing seemed the same.

Things was completely different but the same. The work was harder and different from the work I had in middle school even the teachers I had was also different as well.
