Eleventh grade is called junior year and is the third of four years of high school in the United States. During 11th grade students are 16 or 17 years old. Grade twelve is after 11th grade and is the final year of high school.
I have included a table below showing the names of each year of high school.
| Grade | Name |
|---|---|
| 9 (first year of high school) | Freshman |
| 10 | Sophomore |
| 11 | Junior |
| 12 | Senior |
