0 {5 o$ p" e% mCogito is an alternative program for children Grades K to 9. As enrollment continues to grow Cogito is approved to continue to Grade 12. This Edmonton Public Schools program has been in successful operation since 1995.

Critical thinking is stressed. Students work in an environment that encourages self-discipline.

我觉得挺符合中国家长对孩子的期望，但是有些西方家长不在乎，他们更希望孩获得学习的乐趣，而不是学习的深度。所以不同的期望，不同的选择而已。
