Back-to-school anxiety is something many students experience, even if they don't always talk about it. The start of a new school year can bring excitement, but it can also bring stress, nerves, and uncertainty about what is ahead. Even though I knew I would probably know most of the people in my classes, I would still feel nervous walking into a classroom. 75% of high school students and 50% of middle schoolers consistently feel stressed. Once you get through that first step into the classroom, and first day of school, things will totally become easier!
