Friends
Making friends is super easy. There's not one particular type of person. Here at North, we have many types of people/ friend groups. One thing you need to do is pick one or two trustworthy people to become your best friends. Also be careful of what you tell people, because you never know if it will come back to haunt you.
Websites for Homework
The websites we use are Blackboard & Edmodo. We usually use Blackboard, but some teacher still use Edmodo as well. On that note, you really want to make sure you stay updated with them. Checking everyday is important.
Late Work
When it comes to late homework, they are pretty fair. If you work you hardest, but you just can't meet the deadline letting your teacher know before hand will help a lot. However, you have to be actually working. If you just mess around and your work is late, you will get points taken off.
Electives & Pre Ap classes
You can have two electives. You can do Choir, Drama, Band, Art, P.E, or Creative Writing. You can also take G.T and PreAp classes. Keep in mind you must take two years of physical education classes and one fine arts elective before completing middle school.
Asking Questions
Asking questions is very important. If you're unsure, ask questions. If you weren't paying attention, ask questions. If you know, ask questions, just to make sure you're on the right track! Asking more questions will save you lots of time on your school work.
