    Google tells me there’s a difference of 1 due to the US calling year 1 kindergarten so year 10 is grade 9.

      It’s all surprising to me. I did not know there were formals at that age. I thought they were a grad thing.

        It depends on the region, in my area of the US we had a Ring Ceremony formal in 10th grade for people getting their rings. Then Junior Prom in 11, and Senior Prom in 12th.

        I sorta remember a “homecoming” formal also but can’t remember where that fit in.
