September is the time for students to go back to school! For Chinese students, most schools start on the same day. We will share summer stories with the same classmates 1 the first—year students. But in American schools, students get ready for classes a little 2.
First of all, American schools don't all start on the same day. Classes begin any time between August and September. Every 3 decides when to begin its classes. If summer is too 4 then schools will usually start a little later.
Every year we usually see the same teachers and classmates, but American students have some big changes. In American high schools teachers divide 5 into different levels. Students can choose their favourite teachers and courses according to their abilities and 6. This means that every year American students will 7 different classrooms or different classes. They will meet 8 classmates and teachers in each one. Also, students will go to school a few days early to get their 9 so that they can know the classes every day.
For first—year students, the first day of school also means they finally get their own lockers. Primary school students in the USA have to share lockers with their 10.
