Social Sciences - Education / Pedagogy / brochure for Middle Schools studentsparents | | English term or phrase: junior high | | In order to meet the academic, emotional and social developmental needs of your adolescent, middle schools are structured quite differently from elementary, junior high or high schools: |
| | | 7º y 8º grado | Explanation:
Según entiendo, el sistema escolar en EEUU (no sé si el texto es de este país) está dividido en elementary school (1º a 5º), middle school (6º a 8º), junior high (7º y 8º, denominado así porque precede al high school) y high school (9º a 12º, que en mi país se conoce como secundaria o enseñanza media). En todo caso las divisiones varían :-/
"In the United States (...) junior high schools include grades 7 and 8 or 7 through 9. Many junior highs are designed similarly to high schools. This is meant as a hybrid, to ease the transition from elementary school to high school for students. Sometimes they are called Intermediate schools (...) The middle school format has now replaced schools using the junior high format by a ratio of about ten to one in the U.S."
