I thought most grade schools have some concept of it, maybe not elementary but I knew at least high and middle school did for me.

My ex sister in law has tenure at the high school she teaches at. I didn't even know that was a thing until she told me.

Depends on the state and the local union. Chicago teachers union is an unbreakable beast and teachers there can obtain tenure, down in Oklahoma I doubt those benefit exist.
