Because most High Schools (in the US) consist of 9th-12th grades. 9th = Freshmen, 10th = Sophmore, 11th = Junior, and 12th = Senior. While some areas have 9th grade at the Jr High ans some others break High School into a 9th/10th and 11th/12th schools. The vast majority of High Schools in the US have 9th-12th grades. This is most likely to resemble a similar structure to a 4 year University and to prepare students for University.

Why year seven should be part of high school?
Not everyone would agree that grade seven should be a part of high school. In fact, many would argue that it should not be a part of high school. Due to the difference in age and maturity of seventh graders and high school, having middle schools with grades 6, 7, and 8 or just grades 7 and 8 is actually a good way to divide the grades.
