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。
3 s0 @5 K1 u& K1 Y6 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.
! }$ I0 V# d6 X) YThe 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.8 k2 n$ W. V. V& F7 _

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 |
