We have compulsory primary education which consists 8 years of education called "ilköğretim".
"How would a middle school student say that they are in grade 7 in their school?" There is a confusion:
If the subject is a singular student, alternatives are as above, othervise they would be:
"Yedinci sınıftayız."
"İlköğretim yedinci sınıftayız."
"İlköğretim yedinci sınıfta okuyoruz."

English term (edited):
i\'m in the seventh grade.
Orta ikiye gidiyorum
This is a habitual usage from the old days when 5-year primary and 3 year-secondary education were separate. Even though it is technically wrong to call 7th grade "Orta iki(2)" it is not yet totally replaced by "7. sınıf" and is still commonly used.
