A% h7 O) c, t. a# f1 h: HCogito 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. " H; h2 g! y. `" h3 }
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.

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。0 W% F9 y1 y$ f& A* J. d B

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 |
