Hosting a car show can do wonders to promote your company, whether you are a manufacturer, wholesale distributor or retail outlet. In March, we held our third-annual B&M Racing and Hurst Shifter event, drawing 600 cars, more than 55 vendors and thousands of spectators.
Many children can begin full day kindergarten program at age 4. Elementary schools provide full day kindergarten programs for children aged 4 and 5. They also provide instruction from grades 1 - 8. Generally, students begin elementary school at 6 years of age and graduate at 13. Secondary schools, often called high schools, provide instruction from grades 9 - 12.
I wanted to share the experience of what it was like to enroll my kids in school. Since kindergarten is not mandatory here, itâs actually somewhat of a complex process, so perhaps this information will be helpful to others in similar situations. Mandaratory Japanese school starts in first grade at the age of 6. Whereas American kids typically have 1-2 years of (voluntary) preschool before they start (mandatory) kindergarten, Japanese kids typically have 2 years of (voluntary) kindergarten before they start (mandatory) first grade. These two years are called KG-1 (for 4 year olds) and KG-2 (for 5 year olds).
