you say "je suis en dixième année". But this has no real meaning regarding french education system.
You can say "je suis au lycée" ("lycée" is the word for "highschool". Lycée lasts 3 years : You are in "Seconde" when you're around 16 yeard old, in "Première" when you're around 17 and in "Terminale" when you're around 18.)

We count in reverse order, from middle school. And you count from the first year you go to school, right?) So, year 6 are the same in the US and in France (first year in middle-school?). So, year 10 is "seconde" (first year in high school - we have 4 years in middle school and 3 in high school).

You would thus say: Je suis en Seconde.

Here's how we do it (in case I made a mistake):

Middle school (collège):
Sixième (6ème)
Cinquième (5ème)
Quatrième
Troisième

High school (Lycée):
Seconde (2nd)
Première (1ère)
Terminale (Tale)

"Je suis en dixième (10eme) année".
Although in French-speaking countries, they use different terms to refer to grades (years). I mean, education systems are different. But I think they will understand if you say it that way.
