Getting a good education is important, as it will help you get a good job with a good salary.
Every country has rules which govern its own education system.
In the United States, as per the
Constitution, each of the 50 states has the right to detail how their system of education is set up.
However, the basic setup of education is practically the same throughout the United States.
The first step of an American education is known as Elementary School .
(Some oldfashioned terms for this are “Primary School” and “Grade School”) Elementary school starts with
“Kindergarten” and goes through either 5th
or 6th
grade, depending on the state.
(Kindergarten, 1st
Grade, 2nd
Grade, etc.
) On average, a child starts Kindergarten at the age of 5, although they may be
younger or older depending on their level of maturity.
Upon completing elementary school, students
will then enter Middle School or Junior High School, which involves grades 6-8 or 7-9 respectively,
