childrens development.according to cindy carson of the child advocacy(拥护)group first call，a positive transition to high school is one of the keys to a childs success in life.the dropout(退学者)rate for ninth graders is much higher than that of other grades.students also repeat the ninth grade at a much higher rate than other grades.thats why ninth graders in particular need the attention and support of parents to get a firm foothold in high school.when parents spend time answering their childrens high school question，they give their children the confidence they need to make the transition easier.key topics to discuss during the eighth grade should include the differences between middle and high school，the importance of academics，the role of friends，and organization and time management.studies of middle schoolers feelings about high school show that they are excited about developing new friendships，having more freedom and more choices，and participating in the extracurricular activities.at the same time，they are nervous about older students making fun of them，getting lost in a big school，getting bad grades，having stricter teachers，and being unable to handle harder academic work.many school districts have carried out programs to ease the transition to high school by separating freshmen from upperclassmen or setting up ninth grade academies to beffer ninth graders from the pressure from older students.parents can explain the benefits of such programs to their children and encourage them to make the most of this special attention.another way for parents to help their eighth graders make the transition easy is to stay actively involved in the decisions their children make about high school classes.parents can review class choices and discuss how they fit into the students overall high school plans.parents can talk about electives(选修课)and encourage their children to express their individuality through elective classes.parents can also talk about the opportunities high school offers for making new friends.16for teens，starting high school _ais very difficult and can be a headachebcan be both scary and excitingcis a good chance to communicate
