On average it is either 5th or 6th grade... it depends whether you are going to a middle school there after or a junior high school. I graduated elementary school after 5th grade, and entered a middle school in 6th up to 8th grade...But junior HSs start at 7th grade, so they typically finish school after 9th grade.

Depends on how the school is set up but it's usually 5th, at most 6th, grade.

Traditionally it was the 6th grade. During the last thirty or so years many schools have gone to the 5th grade.. . Personally I believe that 6th grade is better because when the students move into junior high (or middle school) they are better prepared emotionally to deal with the older children. But then I believe “neighborhood” elementary schools are better centers of learning than the consolidated approach requiring busing and the trend is toward consolidation.
