Child will be done with secondary school May, 2012. Secondary school is HIGH SCHOOL. So your child support will continue until the child turns 18 in August.

Its generally lumped into elementary. Elementary is generally k-8, and secondary is 9-12. Although it really doesn't matter a whole lot anyway, because CS goes through high school graduation anyway.
