Middle School Vs. Junior High
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
MMM writes…”Patti, Can we have a middle school vs. Jr. High blog sometime?”
Sure, why not. I was trying to think of something to compose for the last day of school, but inspiration has yet to strike. Middle schools are grades 6, 7 and 8, with an emphasis on keeping kids in the same class together most of the day and otherwise resisting high school type things like changing classes for each subject. Junior high schools are 7th, 8th and sometimes 9th grades. Sixth-graders remain in elementary schools. Junior high schools typically have kids change classes and more closely resemble high school.
Which is better?
