Typical American elementary schools consist of elementary school from Kindergarten to 6th grade, middle school from 7th and 8th grade, and High School from 9th to 12th grade. Parents can choose to enroll their students in pre-school and children are often in childcare from an early age. There are variations of this format found throughout the nation, but most follow a similar layout. School is usually in session from September till June. Post-secondary education, or college, is generally governed separately from the elementary and high school system. Funding for public schools is from three levels: state, local, and federal.

International Schools

International schools can be the perfect solution for an expat student (multinational corporation executives, children of diplomats, NGO staff) in USA. International schools provide similar standards of schooling around the globe, providing for an easy transition between schools whether they are in France or Vietnam.

There is usually local population, as well as an international student body. Schools may follow a curriculum model from the US, UK, France, etc. Primary instruction may be any language (and multiple languages are usually taught), but it is usually in English. Schools also provide internationally accepted accreditation such as the international baccalaureate.

Admission and enrollment procedures vary from school to school. Space is often limited and preference may be given to students based on nationality. Tuition tends to be expensive based on local standards, but offers high standards of learning, boast smaller class sizes, first-rate facilities, and extracurricular. Boarding facilities are available at some schools, but most only provide day classes.
