You think 5th grade is difficult and the rules are kinda tough right? Well, sixth grade is a whole nother level. You’re expected to get to class within four minutes even if you’re on the other side of the building! In sixth grade you have to be very quick, it’s basically survival up here. So here are two pieces of advice to make your year in 6th grade a little easier, don’t be disrespectful or have an attitude and bullying/drama is not tolerated in middle school is the best way to survive sixth grade.

When you get in 6th grade don’t be foolish thinking you can act how you act in intermediate and elementary. When you enter sixth grade you’re expected to act like high schoolers basically. We also have a big bullying program, which does not tolerate any bullying whatsoever. Also anything involving drama is also not tolerated in 6th grade, you’re either sent to the principal or the school counselor. So don’t even think about it, if you’re having troubles or anything like that the school counselor is very kind and will listen and help. The best way to have a nice and quick year is if you don’t get involved in drama.

Another thing that will help you get through the school year is your behavior. Behavior is an important thing in sixth grade, it’ll also help you get through the year quicker if you don’t act up. Behavior goes a long way, if you act up or aren’t serious when you need to be you can miss out on a lot of school field trips to Splash Kingdom, Six Flag, and more. But, if you’re a good child then you’ll have the best year ever.

Sixth grade sounds scary and tough right? It’s actually not, sure there are many rules but once you get the hang of it, it’s like a daily routine you can never forget. The teachers are nice (most of the time) and lunch is 10x better, and don’t worry about being lost a couple times, happened to me too. These were some important things you needed to know about sixth grade, and how you’re expected to be in 6th grade. I hope your year goes as well as mine did!
