Physical Training, Music and Drawing are also taught. Some schools teach a modern language, such as French, Spanish or German.
The junior high school is a sort of halfway between elementary and secondary school. It continues some elementary school subjects, but it also introduces courses in Mathematics and Science, and usually gives students their first chance to study a foreign language. It usually comprises grades seven, eight and nine.
The high school prepares young people either for work immediately after graduation or for more advanced study in a college or university. The subjects studied in elementary school are studied in greater detail and in a more advanced form in high school. In addition a student can specialize in Home Economics, Chemistry and Physics, Music, Huma¬nities etc.
All states and districts have set the secondary school graduation level as the completion of the 12th grade, and the common name for the secondary graduation qualification is the High School Diploma.
The USA have the shortest school year in the world, an average of 180 days.
