Hi there! Do you mind sharing what grade? First thing you do is tell your teachers. Below is a little card you can print and cut out to give to your teachers. You can do it discreetly if you want. [https://westutter.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/I-Stutter-Card-Template.pdf](https://westutter.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/I-Stutter-Card-Template.pdf) I totally recommend telling your class and during introductions. First impressions are EVERYTHING. If you come out of the gate introducing yourself and then saying you stutter. If you stutter on your name you can add a little, "I stutter, as you can obviously see." Gets a good chuckle. Stuttering with confidence makes you look empowered. Below are some tips on helping educate classmates.
