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。
# y; o8 E5 s2 _4 Y0 M' M" c4 O' u+ \( xCogito 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.

Critical thinking is stressed. Students work in an environment that encourages self-discipline.

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 |
