    The schooling levels Kindergarten through Grade 12.

    PS; this grade level system is primarily found in the USA and English Canada.

    Lol, I was going to say "primarily American" and leave it at that but looked it up in Wikipedia... and there read the "used in English Canada".

    ... so do we win a prize if we submit a correction to Wickipedia? :D

    In Canada, Education is a provincial responsibility that varies from province to province.

    Now while most of English Canada is K-12, that does not apply to all.

    For example, the province of Prince Edward Island doesn't have kindergarten as part of its normal public school system.

    And until 3 years ago, high school in Ontario was from Grades 9 – 13 (Grade 13 was called OAC though, Ontario Academic Credit).

    In Québec, they still have 1 extra year of school than the other provinces. However, while a normal university degree is 4 years in the rest of Canada, Québec students who choose to go to University, are exempt their first year and only attend for 3 years. Quite confusing if you ask me.
