Hi, I am starting middle school in September and I am looking for tips. I am so excited to go, but, I am curious. I read a book of tips for middle school, but I still have more questions. So if you have some useful tips, please tell me. Her are some of my questions:
What do I do when I finish my lunch and the bell hasn't rang?
Do I get detension if I am tardy?
Please Help Me
First off don't worry. Every student in your class will be just as new as you. You won't get edtention for a your first tardy for a minute or two. Be tardy sbveral times and then you will be called down to the office. Maybe a bad locked location marks you late and they can move your locker. There will be lunch supervisors in the lunchroom and they will explain how everything works. Generally you are free to talk with your friends but not get up and move around. Remember all your 8th grtade buds will be there with you. Good luck.
You won't be late and you just hang out with your friends and get ready for your next class!Quote:

Middle school is where cliques start deveolping, so make sure you hang with the people who you have fun with, not the popular kids. You'll be happy with your friends, and the popular kids won't bother you. Just take it easy, be yourself, don't worry, and get ready for middle school, baby!
Well when you are doneyour lunch just talk with your friends till lunch is over. Or you could if you have make up you could go and put some lipstick or cream till lunch is over. Hope this helps:D
Hey! It depends on your teacher whether you get a detention or not. Generally during the first week of school, they will accept tardies. Try not to make it a habit though. :p My science teacher in middle school doesn't give you detention. But my social studies teacher does... So it all depends on the teacher! ;) As for the lunch, I usually finish my lunch WAY before the bell rings, so it's all right! I'm sure your friends will too :) But if you do, just talk with your friends and have a good time. That's what lunch is about! LOL :D So good luck in middle school. It's not complicated. Once you get the hang of it (which is around the middle of 6th grade) it should be a BLAST! Good luck :p
I have a whole guide! So far I have 74 tips! You can start a guide, too!

First of all, middle school is no big deal. It may seem very different and hard, but once you get there, you'll hardly notice it. It will be hard, but you wouldn't be there if you weren't ready! Plus, you have parents, friends, and teachers to help you through it. Relax and be yourself!
Middle School really isn't as bad as it may seem. Every school is different so there really isn't a rule book that applies directly to you. If you finish your lunch, I would just hang out and talk to all your friends. You probably only get around 20 minutes for lunch so don't spend all your time talking. Every school has different policys for tardiness. For the first few days, they proabably won't matter. But don't make a habit out of it. If your school offers a Open House night, I would definitely go to it. Bring your school supplies and get your locker ready. Also practice your locker combo. Just have fun and be yourself. Good Luck :)
The first week for me, no body got iss for being tardy, I never had iss in my whole life, I have a guide, no body appreciates it, is like the same as neds declassified school survival guide.
OMG! Soo much help thanks!
