I did 8-12, so it was much the same for me. The bigger transition was from grammar school to 8th. I'm pretty sure I had classes in two of the three main school buildings my 8th grade year, so the transition from 8th to 9th wasn't anything big since the cafeteria was in the one that I didn't have classes in until getting to 9th.
Stale donuts and soft serve ice cream. :hihi:
