Your teen doesn't have to literally map out the school, but knowing when he has each class and where the class is located can not only help alleviate some anxiety, but also cut back on the chance of being tardy.
Ask your teen to look over his class schedule and do a test run in his head to see how long it takes to get from one end of the building to the other, including taking time to stop at his locker.
If necessary, he can always call the school and arrange time to do a walk-through so he doesn't get lost on the first day. Just remind him that when all the students are there, the crowds and socializing will add some time getting from class to class.
