Explanation:
7mo, 8vo y 9no grado = 7th, 8th and 9th grade

1er y 2do año = 10th and 11th grade

Supongo entonces que el bachillerato en Venezuela abarca un total 11 años de escuela; en EE.UU. son 12.

Explanation:
Con la respuesta de Henry ya sabes la equivalencia entre Venezuela y Estados Unidos, pero creo que tu pregunta se refiere a si puedes decir "año o grado" como "year or grade" y creo que sí que se entendería, estas diciendo el año o el grado que se está cursando.
