My hometown has junior high schools... Elementary is K-4, Middle school is 5-6, junior high is 7-8 and high school is 9-12.
That was "new" when I was a sophomore... before then, Elementary was K-5, Middle school was 6-7, jr. high was 8-9 and HS was 10-12.
And from what I understand it wasn't a statewide "law" that created the situation... it was a district policy that was in place for that school district to define who the valedictorian would be.
