 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。
 6 P% d  C4 b. B+ X! v4 OCogito 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. - Z, x  E* `- T2 s
 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.) {6 t  B% S% p8 T7 t4 z' Y6 ^, T
