1. Yes (bring a copy as they may want to keep it for their records)

2. yes

3. no need to ask - they will do whatever they do when you get there and register

4. No, middle school ends when it ends and high school is a 'clean slate' so to speak. (The only link is that some kids are more advanced and do for example math classes in middle school that others will only do in high school, so some will be ahead, but again what class you can go into will be assessed on your past record anyway. But a high school transcript in the US will only has the high school classes and grades on it, nothing is carried over.)

You won't be able to transfer grades from an overseas school as far as i know. If you have already started high school and you go in later than a new freshman, then discuss with your counsellor about how they will calculate your grades, GPAs, college requirements etc.  Again, this is not unusual, many people do it, the school will have a system to deal with it. Actually your counselor will probably have a long session with you to explain everything anyway when you register at the school - that's what happened when we arrived - so you should be good!

Thank you so so much Susie, appreciate it That made it clear, thank you.
