Joogle is actually a Jewish search engine lol!

In the US we have both 7-8 and 7-9 jr highs.

@AfroDyyd: Of course Tanuki is in statue form. It's the Calvin and Hobbs rule, he's only alive when they're alone together.

Did anyone else search Joogle after reading this? I got Chaunukah in the UK.

Wouldn't the Japanese Google be more "Noogle"? (N stands for Nippon, the japanese name for Japan, for the uninitiated.)

That's not that strange. My Jr High was the same way.

I had a buddy that said in California some of them started at 6th grade. He was surprised my JR started at 7th and went to 9th. The high school started at 9th where he was from.
