Education System
Education in the United States is provided by both public and private schools.
Public education is universally available, with control and funding coming from the state,
local, and the federal government. Public school curricula, funding, teaching,
employment, and other policies are set through locally elected school boards, who have
jurisdiction over individual school districts. State governments set educational standards
and mandate standardized tests for public school systems.
Private schools are generally free to determine their own curriculum and staffing
policies, with voluntary accreditation available through independent regional
accreditation authorities. 88% of school-age children attend public schools, 9% attend
private schools, and nearly 3% are homeschooled.
Education is compulsory over an age range starting between five and eight and ending
somewhere between ages sixteen and eighteen, depending on the state. This
requirement can be satisfied in public schools, state-certified private schools, or an
approved home school program. In most schools, education is divided into three levels:
elementary school, middle or junior high school, and high school. Children are usually
divided by age groups into grades, ranging from kindergarten and first grade for the
youngest children, up to twelfth grade as the final year of high school. There are also a
