    In elementary school, nothing was really that important. It was mostly being a kid with other kids, and not pissing off your parents for misbehaving at school because you were bored from having everything too easy. By the time you get to junior high, everyone is convinced that they know exactly who they are.

They face their first transition from home to school, elementary to middle school, middle to high school, and high school to college or work (Schumacher, 1998). However, the transition from elementary to middle school seems to be harder for adolescents due to the personal changes of puberty.

    Now being at Richland Elementary School for about 8 weeks, I have a good sense of the people around me, the school itself, and myself in my role with the children.
