所提供之教育銜接小學和高中的教育機構。此詞彙主要於北美地區使用，通常指7到9年級。在部分地區可能和「中學」（middle schools）的意思重疊；但大部分有「中學」的學制裡通常不會再出現「初級中學」。在大多數的地區，中學新生比一般初級中學新生小1到2歲。

英文....

Educational institutions teaching at a level intermediate between elementary school and high school. The term is used primarily in North America, and usually covers grades 7 through 9. In some areas, usage with "middle schools" may overlap; however, most school systems that have a middle school typically do not also have a junior high school. Middle schools in most areas accept children a year or two younger than those in junior high schools.
