American schools begin in September after a long summer. There are two terms in a school year. The first term is from September to January, and the second is from February to June. Most American children begin to go to school when they are five years old. Most students are 17 or 18 years old when they finish high school.

     High school students take only four or five subjects( 科目 ) each term. After the class they do many interesting things.

     After high school, many students go to college( 大学 ). They can go to a small one or a large one. They usually have to give a lot of money. So many students work after class to get money for their studies.
