l LdMitLLLL Freshmen face new experiences “It helped having some upperclassmen for friends. Someday we’ll be back on the top.” -Bryan Gentry- Being nervous was one of the main emotions felt by the new freshmen. Going from middle school where they were at the top of the ladder to high school where they were at the bottom was a disturbing factor. Now the ascent had to be started all over again. For most this was a depressing thought. One freshman, Bryan Gentry, said, It helped having some upperclassmen for friends. Someday we'll be back on the top.” But some freshman weren't disturbed by having to begin again. They looked forward to their freshman year as a challenge. According to them, the high school had a more relaxed atmosphere than middle school. Holly Merz was anxious to make the move. She said, I did look forward to high school. It lived up to my expectations. High school is fun, but it is a lot different than middle school. Dan Jenkins commented on how he felt about upperclassmen. He said, I have mixed feelings for the upperclassmen. Most of them treat me as if I were one of them. That makes me feel wanted, and I like that. But then there are others who most of the freshmen don't like because they try to put us down and make us feel out of place.” Some of the freshmen came into high school with the thought that they were going to be initiated. Bryan Gentry said, I heard that all freshmen were initiated when they first got here, so I was a little scared. After a while though, I found out that this wasn’t true. As soon as I realized this, I felt better about high school.
