According to Wikipedia, yes and no. It depends on where you live.

Canada


Ursula Franklin Academy a high school in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
In Canada, "High School" (also known as "Secondary school" or "Collegiate Institute") generally refers to schools comprising grades nine through twelve, but this can vary between provinces and school districts. Each province and territory of Canada has its own education system, with some provinces having "Junior High", whilst others have post-grade ten secondary school, sometimes known as "Senior High". The majority of high schools in Canada schedule classes running from late August or early September to mid or late June with a summer break during July and August.
Canadian high schools offer many extracurricular activities, including athletics. The most popular sports in Canadian high schools are ice hockey, rugby, soccer, lacrosse, field hockey, football, baseball, basketball, track and field athletics, and volleyball. Senior prom, also known as "grad" or "formal", is a very popular activity amongst graduating students. Many non-sporting extra-curricular activities are offered in Canadian high schools, including drama, yearbook club, and computer club.
An increasing number of international students are attending Canadian high schools. Among all boarding secondary schools in Canada, Columbia International College is the largest, with around 1,400 international students from 66 countries.

It goes to grade 12.

The province of Ontario had a grade 13 but it was phased out in 2002.

They do that in Venezuela, and when my boyfriend moved to Canada from there when he was 19 (he was in college by then) they made him go back to high school.

If you're basing your assumptions about the Canadian educational system on the Trailer Park Boys, I'm scared. :willy_nilly:

BC also had grade 13 but I don't know if it still does.

It's probably one of the funniest shows ever produced in Canada.

Something I find alarming about it though is everybody, and I mean everybody knows people like that.


Bubbles rocks ! Long live Bubbles................
