For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Most children enter first grade at age 6 or 7 depending on state law and in which month their birthday falls. For each succeeding year their age increases one year, i.e., 3rd grade would be 8 or 9. The grades are K through 12 with K being kindergarten and 12 being a senior or last grade in high school before graduating. Most graduates are 18, although some are as young as 17, which I was.
