I'm in 12th grade. That's what American schooling goes up to. Does it work differently where you live?

Ah-we're one step apart. We graduate in year 13

[FireAndSun]

Where are you from by the way? I can never remember. Me and my memory.

[it means no worries]

The UK

Ah. I can't imagine being required to take schooling for 13 years. 12 years is bad enough.

I would assume year 13 would be the same as 12th Grade since I bet UK counts Kindergarten as year one. Although I could be wrong.

It's because our kids start at 4

That's about the age kids usually go to preschool here. But preschool and kindergarten aren't required, at least not in my state. Kids in Illinois aren't required to go to school until age 7.

[it means no worries]

Until 7? That's crazy

[FireAndSun]

I don't think most parents wait that long, though. I and pretty much everyone I know has been going to school since about age 4 or a bit younger.
