The American public education system is a way that the government provides schools and education for children. It’s divided into different levels:
Elementary School: This is where young kids, usually from kindergarten to 5th or 6th grade, learn basic subjects like math, reading, and science.
Middle School (or Junior High): After elementary school, students go to middle school for grades 6 or 7 through 8. They continue learning various subjects and may start switching classes for different subjects.
High School: This is for older students, typically from 9th to 12th grade. High school covers a broader range of subjects, and students can choose elective courses based on their interests.
Graduation: After completing high school, students graduate. To get a diploma, they usually need to earn a certain number of credits by passing classes.
College/University: After high school, some students go to college or university for higher education. This is where they can study specific subjects in more depth to prepare for careers.
