70.17.206.250's edit to this article

Can anyone check to see whether 70.17.206.250's edit is currently correct?? Georgia guy 21:18, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

While a survey of the grade designations and divisions of the 50 states would be valuable, it is not currently readily available afaik. The assessment by the anon reflects my understanding as well. I do not think the article (or those of the other grades) would be improved by an exhaustive list of how the grade is designated and organized in each state. - Keith D.

Grade 8 is high school in someplaces

Where I live in Surrey BC, grade 8 is the first grade in secondary "high" schools, well atlest at my school, I do think it's different around Canada. The page should be changed to show that. Windscar77 00:07, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"and many other nations"?

From what is featured in the article it would seem that only one other nation, Canada, uses the term 'eighth grade'. Should this not be removed from the article's first line?86.16.139.140 (talk) 22:11, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

This article (along with other the articles in its series) does not strike me as being particularly noteworthy. I have already proposed Fifth grade for deletion, and will most likely propose this one for deletion as well should the deletion of fifth grade go through.

While I think there is valuable information here, perhaps all the grades should be consolidated to Secondary education in the United States, Education in Canada, Education in Quebec, etc. Jmajeremy (talk) 06:01, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Smart Eighth Graders

Some eighth graders are offered to take high school classes. These very smart thirteen year olds are our future. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.100.155.59 (talk) 01:08, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Quebec

I added a brief section about Quebec under international, since it is significantly different from that in the rest of Canada. Please see above about notability, as well. Jmajeremy (talk) 06:01, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
