Hi, Cathy —
Confirmation age will vary as well. Typically, Confirmation
is received around the 9th or 10th grade,
if we are talking about the Latin or Western Rite
of the Church.
In the Eastern Rites, they typically administer
this sacrament to infants when they are baptized.
At the same time, they also give them Holy Communion.
A few decades ago, in the United States, it was
more common for Confirmation to be administered as
early as 4th grade but more often than
not it was administered somewhere between grades
6th and 8th.
