Do high schools teach Henry James? Or are his works only taught in college?

I'm wondering mainly about schools in the U.S. but I'd be interested to hear about other countries as well

Well in Mauritius he is studied in both. As a matter of fact most authors are. It is not the class in which an author is studied that counts but the level at which he is studied, like studying an author at high school level will require deeper analysis than when studied at college level. It is so with any book.

Didn't study him in HS, did in college.
