Your school should be outfitted with ramps due to the ADA. Check to see if you may use those.

dosent it hurt it.. my god this sucks… how am I gonna get to all of my classes

Answer #4

Step up with good leg then move crutches to that step. Repeat. Be careful that you keep your weight forward (so as to not fall back.) On the way down pay attention so as not to catch crutch on step as you pick them up: you topple forward if you do this. Good luck!
