Logic puzzle

[Eddie Teach]

I got it. I've seen similar questions before. However, I don't think it's very logical to assume other people have figured something out already.

This seems surprisingly easy. I seem to recall versions of this that were harder to figure out.

The Athletic regularly keeps offering me $1/month subscriptions. I have been subscribed this way for a year and a half now, and I just signed for 6 more months. It's always the same: I sign up for 6 months at discounted price, cancel when it is about to expire, and a few weeks later I'll get the same offer.

I guess they don't care about making money...

That's the Washington Post for me. $20 annual subscriptions FTW!

I guess it beats most people's zero subscription.

And they don't even have to print an extra copy.

I wonder..

What are the years in Middle School in the USA?

Most commonly ages 11-14 (US grades 6-8) although there's some variation at the margins.

[Grey Fox]

Interesting, so entire schools for 3 years. 🤔

I mean, the kids are in school for 12 years and you have to put them somewhere each year, so how you divide them is at least partially arbitrary?

The high school I went to only had grades 10-12 (16-18ish), so there's another entire school for 3 years, but it was full the whole time so it's not like it was a smaller school than you would have had for grades 9-12...

[Admiral Yi]

Back in my day 7th and 8th grades seemed standard.

I think the theory is to segregate the kids going through puberty.
