I had that one (or similar brand) back in the day. I distinctly remember having to change the ink cartridge in the middle of an essay during 5th grade. The ink cartridge bent and broke instead of being punctured by the feed tube, and the ink spilled everywhere, all over my paper and my desk. Old Miss Marisa was not pleased, especially since she was always on my case about writing with ink anyway. I hated pencils back then.
I'm 43 and I know I've seen them, but I can't recall what it is.

Same here where I grew up. Middle school was grades 6-8, high school was 9-12. However, my sophomore year they created a 9th grade center and high school became grades 10-12.Hmm, judging by yours and others' posts, I must be the outlier here. We had Middle School for grades 6-8. High School was (obviously) 9-12.
Never referred to it as Jr High, but we knew the term.
