I always wanted to write about this, as this is the only year I have a high schooler, an elementary school student and a kindergartener at home. Here we do not have middle school, after six years in elementary school (we call it primary school) and then it will be high school. Though I do not follow exactly the public school system, I usually wait until my kids' birthday to start their school year and just follow their own pace, this is the only time we have kids in three different "categories". Soon, my youngest will be 7 years old and start his elementary school journey. Time flies.... Sometimes I can't imagine how my youngest is going to be 7 years old, and my eldest is already a high schooler now.

Our school has never had a middle school either. I’m assuming you live in a low population area?!

It sure does fly. My daughter is now 50+. I recall some things from grade school and high school. I also have pictures of her for each year K thru 12.

Australia doesn't have middle school either although there is an extra year for littlies. I think the sequence is Kindergarten, Pre-Primary, Primary then Secondary (High School).

Usually education institutions will change its course or textbook every 5 years or so.

Here, after getting done in elementary school, we proceed to junior high School for three years. Then, we proceed to senior high School for another three years. Then, we go college for 4-7 years more

I cannot believe your kids are growing so fast Lee. I remember when little.

I think you've been having too much fun teaching your kids... And am sure your high schooler loves that you have to learn subjects so you can teach him... I am quite sure you're doing an amazing job teaching them.
