I would go with Athanian Boarding School. I have actually heard of a few people going there and they liked it and got right into the University they wanted.

Google Sherlock Holmes quotes - they have quotes from every story. Go to the movie title - google, usually imbd, rotten tomatos have info on the plot summery. Some of the trailers and fan fiction are on You tube. Just type in the titles. You tube also have interesting footage of the final problem by way of jeremy brett and even the other stories you are looking for. Including Young Sherlock Holmes. i don't know if they have crib notes but try wikipaedia on sherlock holmes - he is there. might give you ideas on methods. they do explain his powers of deduction and reasoning. Type in the titles of all stories also -they have great synopis that will help you too. My personal opinion - watch jeremy brett first and young Sherlock on You Tube- get an understanding of his character through visual means, then do the reading. It is short enough. In writing - ask yourself Kiplings questions and you will do fine. Who, What, Where, When, How and Why. Your paper will write itself. And have fun. Sherlock Holmes is a fun guy, so is Watson!

Take a deep breath and relax. Secondary school is a great time of life and offers alot of opportunities for kids to expend themselves intellectually, emotionally, and become more responsible. It's important to realize that harm will come to you only if your in harm's way. Do you have a good group of friends attending this new school with you? Don't hang around with kids who get into alot of trouble. Get a buddy to hang out with and try to avoid the bullies. All schools have them. Check out the schools available to you for your secondary education. You have choices: http://www.schools2colleges.com

Yes secondary school can be a scary thing,but it is a part of life. You will probably do just fine, remember to be yourself and you will make plenty friends. If you get bullied always tell your parents or other authoritative members,do NOT EVER be discouraged to tell on someone who is doing things that may be harmful to you or others. Just try and relax and enjoy it,like I said before you will be fine just be yourself!!!

Answer 2
According to the Yahoo 'terms and services' agreement, you have to be 13 years old or older to answer questions or ask questions on Yahoo Answers. Just informing you :/ About the school, it will really turn out okay. Everyone is as nervous as you are because everyone is anxious in a new environment with different responsibilities. Listen to darktools :)

Answer 3
Its the next step, not to much of a difference. About the boy who hung himself, thats just sad, show more self confidence and pride. This is the next step in your life and youll handle it just fine, Leaving your friends is sad yes... but this gives you new oportunities to not only keep the old, but make some new. Youll be just fine, and Enjoy your new school! Best of Luck.

Answer 7
I'm a senior in high school and I understand how you felt becoming a freshman. You feel worried about, "The what ifs..." It's not as stressful as you think. You will get use to it by a week and you will make friends in places you wouldn't think. High school is the greatest years of a students life. By 12th grade you will look back and think why was I so scared. Good luck!

Answer 8
Im about to join a college in Surrey, from what I can remember secondary school was a brilliant experience as you get a great relief off from primary school. Just relax, try to get to know everyone in your tutor/ registration group, look for friendship and you might be lucky enough to get some good friends from a completly different school. All I can say is good luck at your new school and hope you get great exam grades as i just suk at everything.
