No K, no Grade 1 (Home-schooled, my mom was a teacher, took several years off to raise my sister and I.)

Public school the rest of the way...

Both. Public up to 8th grade, a special public school that required an entrance exam (Brooklyn Technical High School), then back to a public high for 10th grade after we moved to Pittsburgh area and finally back to NYC for 2 years in a private school. Wanted to go back to Brooklyn Tech, but I missed too many of the required classes when I went to Mount Lebanon HS in Pittsburgh for that year.

A few years ahead of me. I went to Tech in 1960 for my freshman year. It was interesting to find out the school has gone co-ed some years back. It was just an all male school back in those days - 6,000 boys.

I too took the exam to go to Tech but received conflicting result info afterward. Finally, we determined that I may have passed the exam but my grade school Principal gave me a poor recommendation due to disciplinary issues. So, some well off relatives offered to send me to prep school and I accepted. My three brothers and I attended four different high schools.
