Preferred term

middle school  

Definition(s)

  • The rise of schools dedicated to serving the needs of young adolescents began in the early 20th century with the development of the junior high school. As the number of years of compulsory education increased in the United States, the junior high school served as a bridge between elementary school and high school.
