5 F+ Q+ [$ s# @9 ACogito 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.
. j/ h& s) O5 v+ o: f/ h/ V1 hThe 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.! M. o2 n4 r- P0 B# h6 f/ [
