What is the best part of Crossett Brook? The best part of Crossett Brook for me is being a little more independent and having two recesses.
What does your schedule look like? I have Chore 1, recess, music/band, workshop/15-minute chore 2, lunch/ lunch recess, finish chore 2, reading/book club, applied academics, dismissal.
How large is the school (I mean the number of students)? 300 something?
Where is everything? I cannot explain this but you will probably figure it out the first week or two.
Is it hard to get to all of your classes? No not at all, I never feel rushed and teachers are nice.
Are we going to still have recess? Yes you will have a 15-minute lunch recess and on my team quest we have 30-minute team recess but it depends on the team you always have lunch recess though no matter what team.
What is middle school like? It is fun and you have to be way more responsible and you do not always have a teacher with you, it is a little independent.
Did you know the school by the end of 5th grade? Yes of course it only takes a couple of weeks or less.
What happens if you get detention? Don't get detention and be nice to others, follow the rules.
What's Crossett Brook like? Crossett Brook is an amazing fun school and you will see it next year.
Will we have recess twice? Well, it depends on your team but you always have a 15-minute lunch recess and maybe 30-minute team recess.
What does it feel like being in middle school? I feel more responsible, welcome, and more independent and great.
A days and B days? A days and B days change your 2nd applied academic, for example, I started with French as an A day and P.E. as a b day so French the first day and P.E. the next day and so on.
Is the work hard? It might look hard now but your brain will get used to it and it will feel normal.
How big is the school? There are 3 teams on each side of the school and it is two-story-tall.
What was the biggest change when you changed school? I felt way more independent not having a teacher always by my side and I feel way more responsible.
How are the teachers at the middle school? They are all very nice and you be nice back but I do not know the other team teachers that well beside Quest.
Is homework hard? P.S. I have one in my house. You will get used to the amount of homework.
How hard is it to unlock a locker? You will get used to it within the first week probably but it not too hard and someone can help you if you need, I would ask a teacher if you have trouble but once you learn how to do it and do it a couple of times you will get the hang of it.
How do you remember where all the classes are? You will eventually remember and there will always be someone to help you if you don't know where.

How long are most of your classes? They are 45 minutes to an hour and a half usually.
Do we get our own lockers? Yes, you do get your own lockers.
What do you think when there is going to be a test? I just think that if I have been paying attention I will be ready so pay attention please and just take your time on the test and do your best to get the questions right and if you don't you will learn.
Where are the classrooms? I cannot explain that but you will figure it out it's like playing a game and you will get the hang of it after a week or two.
What is the best part of Crossett Brook? You get more freedom
What does your schedule look like? Most of the hard stuff is in the morning, and the easier fun stuff is in the afternoon.

A days and B days? The schedule is extremely different from Thatcher Brook on an A day you may have PE and on a B-day you might have Spanish and you will all always have your AA=applied academics.
Where is everything? It will get easier once you are in school for about two weeks and in those two weeks, you will have your teachers help.
Are we going to still have recess This is a question me and my friends had. Youu will still have recess. But it looks a little different, you will go into lunch and eat lunch for 15 minutes then the teachers can dismiss you outside. you are welcome to stay inside and keep eating though. We don't have a big playground but the soccer fields are amazing. Plus there is 4 square on the bus loop and a basketball hoop.
How do you use a locker lock? You will get your locker combination and you turn your lock to the right a couple of times then you keep turning right until you get to your first number then turn left and go past your first number then to your second number and then go to the right, right to your last number then lift up the lever and tada!
