One of the scariest things about attending high school is often you come from a primary school that might be relatively small to a high school that is big, full of lots of new classrooms, new people and even different sections, blocks, levels and lots of staircases.
To help you find your way around your NEW school, your buddies will give you a personal tour. Be sure to ask as many questions as possible. If you ever get lost and cant find your way, don't be scared to ask another student or teacher where to go! -
