[quote=Anonymous]Our 9th grader had a hard time until just after the new year. It got better socially. Academically, it has been fine. I noticed a few things from our experience that hopefully helps anyone starting 9th, especially at a new school or a 9-12. Doing a sport or getting involved deeply in something like drama, music, etc. from the beginning helps a lot (ours didn't). Know that dynamics will shift as the months go on throughout the year, although there seems to be less shifting around March/April. As a parent, volunteer, whether you work or not and anytime you can. If there are any events or meet-ups before school starts, go to them/do them.[/quote]
