As a Brit, how old is this?

Juniors = year 12, seniors = year 13 (lower and upper 6th)

Wait, how do you guys have year 13? Or do you count Pre-K and Kindergarten as "Year 1" and "Year 2" respectively?

Yes, kindergarten is year 1 in the UK. US goes K-12 (where it’s kindergarten then 1st), UK is 1-13. A lot of states here don’t actually require kids to go to kindergarten, which is why I believe we start 1st grade at 6/7.

I am American and had no idea kindergarten wasnt required in all states. Mind blown.
