Join some of the school clubs, sports teams that interest you, that way you will meet people that you have something in common with. Also if they have a local ymca or local swimming pool join it this summer and meet some of the kids that way.

Being Confident is the key! Join as many clubs as u can that will help u get recognised and noticed. Also work hard in school,if u don't understand ask the teacher to gover it with u and be Happy! there will be someone in the same position as u, and if u found classwork hard , bring it home and ask your parents to go over it with you. Don't try to hard 2 make friends like begging people to sit next to you, if you don't make any friends learn to be independent and people will appreciate that and become friends with you. Good Luck! =)

Well of course you do your best by studying hard, showing up to all classes, paying attention and doing all of your homework and studying for tests.

As for friends, I wouild often suggest being low key and seeing who is who, and just being yourself. As you meet people in classes, lunch, and other activities you will make some new friends also.

Aww :/ don't worry, I've been trough the Same thing! Look, one thing you Shouldn't do is in nutrition and lunch hide away from everyone. Sit somewhere kind of crowded and make conversation, if your shy, drop something near someone or something that will start a conversation. Ull be fine [: I promise
In classes, just pay attention and do you homework! Don't SLACK OFF not even for one day because trust me it'll trow you of

Set your mind on A's and a's only.

Good luck! And keep your head up little one <3

Ps: be happy in a way, you'll make sooo many new friends. Its fun in the end :]

Aww sweety. You don't have to worry. Be yourself. Do what you can for others, and if YOU see someone lonely, talk to them. Who knows, that person could just end up being your best friend.

Make friends huh, are you shy?
If your not its easy intro yourself get to know them. If not be brave stand up intro yourself,and don't talk little tiny voice talk like loud and brave.

Next:classes? Study do your best.deftly do your homework.

Then your great.

the best thing not to do is freak out.

I know it sounds difficult, but I'm sure it won't be as bad as you think.
When I started high school, I didn't know a single person. I was terrified.
But all it took was to start a conversation. If you make one friend, you'll get introduced to more people. You'll inevitably have to sit next to people in class, and making friends will suddenly be much easier than you thought.
And to meet people with similar interests, clubs and sports teams are a great idea!

Just give it a chance. You'll be fine.
