Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

aren't all high schools 4-year?

Because books.

My high school was 10-12, and junior high was 7-9.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Huh! Yeah, in my experience, high school is 9-12.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Most public schools I'm familiar with are 6 years of grade school, 3 years of Middle/Jr. High school and 3 years of senior High School.

I DID go to a 4-year high school but it was an all-girl Catholic school.

Obviously I m with Jesse. High School is 9-12, Junior High is 7-8.

Although we had a "middle school" 5-8.

Thrive to spite them

Where I grew up all the public schools and most of the private schools were K-5th Elementary, 6-8 - Middle school, 9-12 High school

That's like the district my kids go to now, askye.

And actually, where we used to live it was K-5, 6-8 middle school, then 9 and 10 were "junior high" (and in a separate building, although the athletic fields were shared), and 11 and 12 high school. Weird.

It's always weird how things are different.

Again, growing up in North Florida, we always started school before Labor Day and were out before June. And we got a break for the holidays and spring break, that's it.

But around here in VT (at least several of the schools I know about) school starts either the week before or after Labor Day and gets out last week in May. The schools have winter break, Feb break, and spring break.
