If I Were in Sixth Grade Again

August 12, 2024

Next up! Eighth graders are heading to high school next year, but before they go, they dish out advice to incoming sixth graders about what they wish they would have known when they started junior high.

“Upcoming grades are tougher than previous ones so study hard and work hard, and you will go places.”
Autumn, WJH

“Don’t worry about getting into relationships, and don’t let people decide who you are. Be true to yourself.”
Emma, EJH

“Don’t stress out over the work they give you and choose friends that are nice to you.”
Kory, EJH

“Don’t be nervous about middle school and try new things; when you get older you can decide what you like.”
Reese, WJH

“Study a lot and pay attention so you can play sports because in 7th and 8th grades things get real.”
Drigo, WJH

“Be yourself and don’t let others judgement change the way you act.”
Dylan, EJH
