This is in order-
1st-2nd grade, I went to Ballet, which was up the street from the house my parents bought.
3rd grade, I went to White Street School, had to be bussed to get there.
4th grade, I went to Sumner Ave School, had to be bussed there also.
5th and 6th grade, I went to Elias Brookings School, which I lived close enough I could walk to school.
7th-9th grade, I went to Forest Park Junior High, which is now a middle school, but was able to walk to school.
10th-12th grade, I went to High School of Commerce, which I took public bus to get back and forth.
No further education after that.
Providence R.I. for me, and Texas in later years.
I've been told that that city is gorgeous in the fall.
I been to Boston one time. Feel in love with it. Mass. has so much history too you know that I was completely over stimulated it all. It was great. But my hubby won't take me back.:sad:

Attended East End Junior High for grades 7th through 8th the city of Richmond.
Attended Armstrong High School fro grades 9th through 12th in the city of Richmond.
Attended Virginia State University for my college education in the city of Petersburg. All schools located in the state of Virginia, U.S.A.
Richmond, Va oh my goodness. I would have been soooo preooccupied by all the rich history that I don't think I would have ever got anything done. That's awesome.
No kindergarten, but from 1st through college all in the little town of LaGrande, Or. Various schools there, but in a town of 10,000 it doesn't make much difference and there was only one high school and junior high (middle) school.
When I started college they only offered 2 years of my major, but in my sophomore year they added a third year and when I was a junior they added the degree. It worked out well.

After ACC, I had moved back down to metro Detroit. Livonia is a Detroit suburb.

Hi from across the Atlantic! We have a Birmingham. Birmingham, Alabama home to the civil rights movement. Infants school... I guess that would be our preschool age group sometimes called headstart.
Birmingham City Council decided to produce a flyer, to post through every door in Birmingham, which has a population of approximately 1.5 million. It had a photograph on the front, to show the changing skyline of Birmingham, which has been transformed by the building of higher and higher skyscrapers. Although the picture looked like Birmingham, it was hard to make out individual buildings, and it just didn't look quite right. Then an observant person realised that the skyline was actually of Birmingham Alabama.

How do schools in America work?I've always wondered this, I hear about middle school and high school but what ages are they. In the UK we just have primary and secondary, and lets say year 8 in the UK wouldn't be the same age as 8th grade in the US.

Should high schoolers be able to choose core classes based on a choice of future career?Sophomores and upper classmen only though... they already have prep-classes that you can choose, but is that enough.
