The American school year traditionally begins at the end of August or the day after Labour Day in September, after the traditional summer recess. Children are assigned into year groups known as grades, beginning with preschool, followed by kindergarten and culminating in twelfth grade. Children customarily advance together from one grade to the next as a single cohort or "class" upon reaching the end of each school year in late May or early June. The American educational system comprises 12 grades of study over 12 calendar years of primary and secondary education before graduating and becoming eligible for college admission. After pre-kindergarten and kindergarten, there are five years in primary school (normally known as elementary school. After completing five grades, the student will enter junior high or middle school and then high school to get the high school diploma. The U.S. uses ordinal numbers (e.g., first grade) for naming grades rather than the cardinal numbers (e.g., grade one) frequently used in Canada and Australia. Typical ages and grade groupings in public and private schools may be found through the U.S. Department of Education. Many different variations exist across the country. 1.
