Public Education
Public education is done in three levels which is called elementary, middle school and high school. What the students learn is designed by the school boards which have their own budgets. In America standards of the schools are maintained and tested by the state government.

The term ‘grade’ is used to divide the levels according to age after kindergarten the last one being twelfth.
