So next year

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

So next year

So next year I'm going back to public school (I'm currently homeschooled). I was wondering if you guys have any advice. I went to public school until 5th grade, but I've never been to middle school. Ya know... slightly nerve-racking.

back to the Down to Earth

I've been homeschooled my entire life and I'll be starting high school in the fall, so I know how you feel about it being nerve wracking!

Changing classes isn't as stressful as it seems. If your school has a similar setup to mine, all of the classrooms for one grade level are on the same hallway, so you won't have to rush to get to your next class. However, public schools usually have a lot of students (mine has about 400 per grade) so the hallways can be kind of scary during class change. Also, the amount of homework might take some getting used to.

Thanks for the heads-up!
