Go in to that school with confidence, own it. Don't be a bully, but make sure you're strong, confident(even if you're not), most ppl starting high school proably feel the same as you, so get a little advantage, walk in that school, quick , longish steps, and with a straight back, greet ppl.. looks like you got confidence, and when it looks like you have, it will come to you...

Good luck on your first day!

Good luck Bro!
And remember to walk with a straight back, believe in yourself , if you believe that you're 7' tall, you might not become 7' tall, but you will appear taller to yourself and others, if you believe that you're the greatest man that walked earth, others will see you as a leader.
Don't be scared of crowds, new ppl etc... (I used to be) Get that fear over with first couple of days,(You don't want 4 yrs of it) don't walk a mile extra to avoid the new ppl and crowds, walk straight up to them, greet ppl, don't stop, just keep walking... (to avoid weird silence when nobody knows what to say)
Give your self confidence points - If you complete a task that you chose(can be as simple as greet someone, or stop and ask someone a question), give your self a certain amount of points, the harder task the more points. Your self esteem will grow as the points get higher, trust me.

But most importantly:
1. Be your self - with an overclocked self esteem.
2. Don't ever be a bully, that might boost your confidence, but in a false way, that will come back and haunt you later in life.
3. Make friends
4. Pay attention during classes(easier homework)
5. Make it a blast!

Ps. Advice from my wife: Always be kind, and remember what goes around, comes around.

Thanks for the help BeetleMan, I'm gonna try to work on my self esteem the most. Mines pretty low, 7 years of being picked because of my last name (maloney, rhymes with baloney) pretty much ruined it until I found Pcapex and finally beating the crap out of one of them. ( I lost it )

Well, back from the first day. It was fun I didnt get lost and I found all my classes. My locker worked and I saw a lot of old friends. All the teachers seem nice. the Lockers a color coded so it easy to find your way around. I was super nervous until we were inside and got our home room teacher. I think it'll just be harder tuesday when I go back because everyones going to be there, no just the freshmen.
