Yes and prior to that it’s preschool or “pre-k”

Isn't pre-K for developmentally delayed kids? I always thought it was something different from preschool

Nah pre-k just is short for pre-kindergarten.

What age range is preschool in America?

3-5 typically. So you have 2 years of it in anticipation of kindergarten.

Depends on the child’s birthday though so you can start kindergarten between the ages of 3-6 in some states (I started kindergarten at 4, we had a kid who started at 3 and I know some kids who didnt go until 6)

More parents are holding kids back and starting them a year late because they then do “better” since they’re a year ahead in development.

K-12 is the 12th year of kindergarden.
