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。5 l t2 x! B% r* N: C* [3 s
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. # P+ z: Y" I* X( O& L
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.- T+ t; t' T8 H1 O

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。

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 |
