简单看了一下,大概是和普通学校不同的教育方式,强化听说读写,教学大纲的要求更高些,更学术些。* U( i: O7 C0 p. i3 _6 Z6 {5 j
Cogito 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.
# G! z5 E" P# @4 K0 f4 bThe program is designed for the student who is willing to work to achieve a high level of academic excellence, in a knowledge-based program, and an atmosphere of structured and sequenced learning. Critical thinking is stressed. Students work in an environment that encourages self-discipline.

我个人不愿意送孩子教会学校,我觉得教会学校是一种强灌 |
