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。( B& i2 @" G8 d. ^) Y8 M
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. 9 m- @6 I) c6 R6 }/ A6 `
The 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.- J2 C9 O- i5 a& w4 v8 e( h" g

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 |
