They covered grammar rather thoroughly still when I was in public school. I don't remember getting any grammar at all in high school. I knew about phrases, clauses, subjective, and objective, but it didn't really acquire significance till I started learning languages in which it mattered - Esperanto probably being the first.
Not long ago I was talking about Latin with several friends, and one of them had no idea what a 'case' was. No reason she should, I guess, but we were talking at cross-purposes for a bit.
