6th grader
Eleven or twelve
A 6th grader is a student in the sixth grade of American schooling, typically eleven or twelve years old.
This marks the transition between elementary and middle school in most districts, though some systems place sixth grade in elementary school.
My 6th grader just started at the middle school downtown.
