yes, the middle school is called Chuugaku (中学) and the high school is called Koukou (高校)
both take 3 years to complete. besides that the elementary school is called Shougaku (小学) and takes 6 years to complete, so 12 years to be ready to go to college ^^

Actually in Japan they say:
Junior high school - 3 years.
Senior high school - 3 years.
If you don't make the grades you can always repeat a year. After senior high, if you don't make college, you can go to 予備校、 (prop school), and try to make the grade there.

True.
The education in public school starts at the age of 6. We spend 6 years in elementary school, then 3 years in junior high(middle) school, then 3 years in senior high school. We don't have the concept of "grade", but if we say in the way, 1-6 in elementary school, 7-9 middle school, 10-12 high school.
