I'm sure at least once or twice you will get lost in the hallways. This happens to almost everybody so don't sweat it! Don't be afraid to ask people where to go because more than likely will they be happy to tell you. We are all a community and we need to help each other throughout the crazy and fun years of middle school.

Do make sure you have enough supplies and have the right notes for certain classes. Sometimes teachers can take this off of your citizenship and that wouldn't be very awesome. Either way it's great to be prepared.

Talk to new people! It can be hard at first but you'll appreciate the fact you did it while you could. You find so many great friends in middle school that can help you out and relate on so many troubles they have in school.

GET ALL YOUR WORK DONE ON TIME. That's it. That's the advice. No but seriously, get your work done on time. It piles up so much more quickly than you think. ( Coming from a procrastinator. )

Learn and have fun! - Alonna Aguilera

Always carry at least one note book one you. So if you ever forget you notebook for a certain class you can still take notes and just copy back into the other notebook later.

Keep a stash of pencils in you pencil case.

Finally try not to procrastinate it only adds more stress into your life, that's not work the extra minutes of free time.

Here are a couple things I learned along the way in middle school:

Always carry a notebook or agenda to jot down all of your homework for the night (a google doc or mystudylife.com is also super helpful)

Lockers aren't as hard to figure out as they look! You will be a master at opening it very soon!

Stay Focused and take good notes in class. Everything you learn in class will be on a test one day so take detailed notes to study later!

Don’t be afraid to ask questions if you are confused because teachers and staff are very friendly and if you every need help with anything just ask for help. Don’t wait till the last minute if you ever need help. -Alexis N.

Hi! I hope that you are doing amazing! Since you guys are new, I want to help you out a little bit. Sooo... Here are some tips coming from a 7th grader!
1. try your best to say out of drama
2. get all of your work done before you play video games, etc.
3. Don't be too worried about finding your classes. You can always ask questions, and after a few days you will memorize the campus.

You guys got this, and don't forget that you are all so amazing! I can't wait to see you around!

DO NOT PROCRASTINATE. It is the worst thing you can ever do. It could seem like you can't stop doing it but, it can cost you your entire grade :/ Also, talk to your teachers if you are worried about your grade. Teachers aren't there to punish you, they are there to help you. - Sam :)

I know that this school year has been hard on all of us. Just know that everything will be ok. I myself was scared going into 6th grade. Once I saw my friends, teachers, and everyone having fun it became hard to not have fun. Yes, school is super big but once you get used to it you will remember it fast. Lastly, give the school your all it may seem boring but once you get close to people and get friends it will be easy to learn in school. - Treyden Baltazar

Remember to ask questions, retake assignments, and do the extra credit. It can be the difference between an A or B! Also, your mental health is important, so take care of yourself.

I remember being really anxious about meeting new people. When you're in school and don't know many people it can be boring. School always goes by faster with a buddy. Try to start a small conversation in your spare time. This can be on the way to lunch or in the hallways. Compliments and jokes will get you a friend. :) -alonna

Pay attention in class and take notes! I have a few friends who missed important information during class because they were distracted, so stay on track.

Just don't think about how big the hallway is or how many students are there. And don't worry about being late to your classes. We all did it even when we were 6th graders. Although Del Webb is a huge school. You will find your away round soon!

My biggest advice to 6th graders is to never feel overwhelmed more than you might already. Just remember that you are in 6th grade once and don't spend the whole time feeling overwhelmed.

Middle school isn’t going to be very easy but that doesn’t mean it can’t be fun. Remember to always persevere and never give up! Rely on your friends. Reach out to your leaders. Ask for help and know that you are never alone. If you’re feeling scared and have questions, email me! (mckenzie.404084@nv.ccsd.net) if you’re feeling scared or have questions just reach out! -Mckenzie Pritchett

I remember being very worried about getting to my classes on time, and I thought that if I was even a second late I would be marked tardy, but most teachers will be ok with you being 1-2 minutes late but you wont even need that time because 4 minutes is more than enough time. Jacob Mencia

My biggest advice to 6th graders coming back is to not be scared. I know it is a new school and everything, but there are so many new people going in this with you! There is always someone you can talk to whether it is a teacher, councilor, or even someone that is in 8th or 7th grade. -Ryan Repetti

Just like the Mars Rover Perseverance, you have to be open to change in middle school. But when you come out of it, just like the rover you will have a secret code on your parachute...oh wait. You don't have a parachute. But you will come out with something amazing!
