Q. ok soooo this is gonna sound a little stupid, but this year im going to a public middle school and my old school didnt give class periods and we couldnt decorate our lockers or anything, so do u decorate ur lockers? and, is there any else i should kno? thnx!
Answer
Yes, there are usually 7-8 periods a day for around 45 minutes to an hour each.
Most schools will let you decorate your locker.
Some things I advise that you have in there are -
A small whiteboard and dry erase marker. Very invaluable in case you need to write down test days, etc.
Small mirror.
Little magnetic basket that clips to the inside, so you can have all your pens and stuff in easy reach.
Sturdy backpack, because there can sometimes be a ton of homework and it weighs down your shoulders.
A shelf to put on the bottom to separate your books - before lunch and after lunch. Trust me, if you don't do this they'll all get mixed up and it'll take you FOREVER to get everything out.
Also, you have around 3-5 minutes to get to each class. This may seem like very little, but I assume your school has about a week where it lets the new kids get used to it. Getting the hang of it is really easy.
You usually have a homeroom in the beginning of the day with a bunch of other kids and a specified teacher. In my junior high, these were also the kids I had to sit by at lunch unless it was a special day and we could sit by whoever we wanted.
And one more thing - there's going to be a lot of drama. I mean, a ton. Don't spread rumors, because they hurt, and really, would you want someone spreading a rumor about you? If there's a rumor about you, don't automatically go up to him/her and tell her off. This just brings you down to their level of immaturity. Just brush it off because you know it's not true, and if anybody asks you about it, don't bash the person that started it, just say, "That's not true." or something. I know that's a lot harder than it sounds, but if you can stay true to yourself that's the best.
One more thing - try to get involved in clubs and sports you like! You make a lot of new friends and learn new stuff that way. Plus, it's really fun! :D

Answer
Be as organized as possible. Also, sit by other 6th graders who are IN YOUR CLASSES. Public school is very different than private school. If you sit by a girl on the bus, you will be somewhat shielded from the dirty language and humor. Be in dresscode! At my school, they embaress girls all the time by measuring their skirts with a ruler in the hallway, with dozens of people walking by. For backpacks and shoes, go with stylish, but sturdy. Clothes: Name-brand, yet don't draw attention to yourself. With supplies, have plenty of pencils. It is important to know your way around. Sucking up to the teachers is okay when nescessary, but making friends with them is always okay. Each teacher is different.
P.S. Read the rulebook from front to back, and always be prepared!!
