Middle school is different from elementary school in many ways: Most middle schools change classes throughout the day, so you're constantly on the go. You'll have several different daily teachers and will feel a little less connected to them than you were with your homeroom elementary teacher. Middle school teachers expect more independence, self-support and effort from their students. Students change during middle school, too. Friendships sometimes dissolve, while other new friendships are formed. Students are going through puberty and hormonal changes and are each grappling with the changes to their bodies and minds as they step out of childhood and into the teen years. Students begin "dating" or going steady. And, sometimes, middle school students can be more cruel than elementary students (or even high school students). But middle school can be a wonderful experience for students. It brings certain freedoms they didn't have in elementary school and offers opportunities to participate in sports and other extracurricular activities that elementary school didn't have to offer. These extracurricular activities help the student develop self-confidence and pride in their talents and achievements.
