And here (Canada) we have JK and SK...junior and senior 
kindergarten. I think my K to Grade 6 school was called Elementary 
or Junior Elementary, and my Grade 7 to 8 school was "Senior 
Elementary". High school (Grade 9 to 12/13, when grade 13 existed) 
were also called Secondary Schools. Freshman, Soph, Junior, Senior 
were terms that were never used. However, first year university 
students were called freshman or "frosh", but I never heard the 
other terms used for 2nd, 3rd or 4th year students.
