high school?

i will be going into high school next year. i need some advise. i dont want to be made fun of as a freahman and what can i do to prevent that. i need helpful tips for high school and dating/chrushes in high school. that kind of stuff so please help me

I teach seniors.... but I've taught every grade from 9 to 12.... and these are the biggies I think every girl should know...
First, some advice every freshman needs to hear....
1. DO NOT WRITE LETTERS!! DO NOT WRITE ANYTHING YOU WOULDN'T MIND SEEING PRINTED IN THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER THAT YOUR GRANDMOTHER READS AT HER CHURCH!!! Unfortunately your friends may not be as discreet with your private buisness as you'd like and teachers and other students can end up reading your deep, dark secrets.
2. Be friends with everyone. Don't try to have a clique like the movie Mean Girls or the Gossip Girls Books. You may not like everyone, but be nice to everyone. It pays in the long run. Your best friend in 9th grade will most likely not be your best friend when you are a senior, so don't burn bridges.
3. Don't go boy crazy, even if you are the prettiest girl in your class. I know a lot of kids say they don't care about their reputations, but one day you will. You only get a few chances to make mistakes with your reputation. You don't want to be the girl every guy wants to "date," but that no one will take to prom.
4. Don't date just one guy all through high school. Spend time with your friends, too, not just with a boy. And don't let a boy choose your friends for you.... be your own person and like yourself. Don't think you are married in high school!!
5. Realize now that you will probably suffer a broken heart at least once, and begin telling yourself now you will get over it and he isn't the only boy in the world who could possibly ever make you happy.
6. Have fun, socalize, but remember you go to school to get an education. Start studying hard in 9th grade.....your grades count in high school and your class rank is determined beginning in grade 9. You want to be in the top ten percent if you can possibly do it. Most kids won't start caring about grades until junior year, so if you start in the 9th grade you will be ahead of most others!!
7. Don't be loud to try to get attention. Some girls talk loud and act silly to get attention - but that is not the kind of attention you want. People will laugh at you.....
8. Don't chase boys. Yes, it is 2006, but let boys pursue you....show interest, but let him call you.....
9. GET INVOLVED!! Join clubs or try out for sports teams or drama or the school paper or yearbook, etc....... this is critical!! Disappointments you face will be easier to bear if you have interests and activities to keep you busy. You will meet people and you will enjoy school more if you are involved - you will feel ownership and pride .... I promise!!
Good Luck..... The next four years will be the best four years of your life if you have the right attitude and are a nice person.....:)
