Here I'd go with high school.

Elementary school: Ages 5-~11
Middle school: ~12-13
High school: ~14-17

What is Middle School's purpose if you don't mind me asking? Is there a reason you're only there for a single year or?

Well it's 2 years (3 in some places around here actually now that I thought about it) but I'm not too sure either lol. It's like that in-between stage right around becoming a "teen" that I guess was decided it should be separated from the other two levels of schooling. Also called Junior High a lot.

I assume they added something in between so the names make more sense (first- elementary school, second- middle school, third- high school), but I think there should be more years of staying there.

I prefer how the years are divided up over there in the UK actually. "Primary" and "secondary" could use some work though but it gets the job done
