Can't say I remember 7th grade ... but we were doing proofs in Geometry in High School. I also lived in a semi-rural US neighborhood.
I think the high school level “geometry” class—which may be the only one named such, but primary school math is full of geometry—is an atrophied organ left over from when it was still common to teach directly from Euclid, which is why it tends be about introducing proofs more than covering new abilities and techniques in geometry (though it may cover some of that, too)
