Ninth grade is often the first school year of high school in the United States, or the last year of middle / junior high school . Students are usually 14--15 years old . In the United States, it is often called Freshman year . In England and Wales, the equivalent educational year is Year Ten . In Scotland the equivalent educational year is Third Year or S3, as this is the third year of compulsory secondary schooling . </P> <P> In Argentina, this is "Third Year" and last year of "Basic Cycle" of secondary school, and depending of the province, students are 14 or 15 years old . This is because in Argentina, there's kindergarten, primary school, and secondary school . In some provinces of the country, primary is from "1st grade" to "7th grade" and secondary school from "1st year" to "6th year". In other provinces, primary school is from "1st grade" to "6th grade", and secondary school from "1st year" to "6th year" or "7th grade", if the school has it . All technical schools have "7th grade". So basically there are between 12 and 13 (most of schools), years of school in the Argentinian Educative System, without counting kindergarten, which can be from 3 - 5 or 4 - 5 years old . </P>
