枫下家园 / 望子成龙 / Don mill CI Gifted programs 求教 -yyz6(yyz6); 5-7 {308} (#16084677@0) +2
我们目前7年级, 今年9月，8年级。在York区gifted program. 9年级考虑转学don mills CI GP。求教：1. 这个gp 怎么样？有什么好的方面和特点吗？
看Google review 这个学校说小环境不太好。
2. GP 到10年级，没有ap 对吗那是不是11-12年级和普通班一起上课？
3. 这个学校活动丰富吗？
万分感谢🙏

求教🙏谢谢 -yyz6(yyz6); 5-8 (#16084794@0)
具体情况不太清楚，但这个学校出来的有在UW 热门专业很靠前的学生。至少两届都碰到过。 -tuteng(闻风而动); 5-8 (#16084831@0)
男孩数学好可以试试，和那里校长说一下，孩子去试听1个星期课。 -gtec(Gtec); 5-8 (#16084834@0)
我也在考虑是上GP好，还是IB好 -rzwd(rzwd); 5-8 (#16084929@0)

GP的好处就是学的超前，坏处就是圈子太小，社交单一，另外老师自主性太强。IB的好处是有教材教纲和统考，老师自主性一定程度受到制约，坏处是公校课程死板。主要还得看孩子，喜欢理工竞赛GP，文理均衡一点的IB，其实都行，孩子喜欢上学乐意学习就行。 -humankindyyds(枫木森林); 5-8 (#16085382@0) +1

谢谢建议 -yyz6(yyz6); 5-8 (#16086034@0)
谢谢建议 -rzwd(rzwd); 5-9 (#16086823@0)

如果娃很牛，高中就上GP。一是同学也都是GP的，容易交到类似的好朋友。二是如果想搞点什么竞赛，时间更加充裕些。 -tuteng(闻风而动); 5-9 (#16086833@0)

谢谢，孩子收到一些美国大学的数学CAMP的邀请，那个CAMP要求挺高的，正在想要去GP好还是IB好。现在在PG,明年要做选择。读GP和去美国读大学没有冲突把？ -rzwd(rzwd); 5-9 (#16086841@0)

这不刚好吗，去GP可以有时间多考几门AP，正好拿来申请美本 -tuteng(闻风而动); 5-9 (#16086846@0)

你说的很有道理呢，我问了GPT，他也是这样回答的。 -rzwd(rzwd); 5-9 {2499} (#16086868@0)
Choosing between a gifted program and an International Baccalaureate (IB) program for children who excel in math and computer science involves considering a few key factors:
1. Curriculum Focus: The gifted program often offers a curriculum designed to challenge students through more depth and complexity in various subjects, which may be beneficial for students who excel in specific areas like math or computer science. The IB program, on the other hand, emphasizes a broad and balanced education with a strong emphasis on international-mindedness and core components like Theory of Knowledge, Creativity, Activity, Service (CAS), and the Extended Essay.
2. Structure and Flexibility: Gifted programs can vary significantly between schools, often tailored to the specific talents and interests of the students. This might allow for more focused study in preferred areas like computer science. IB programs are more structured, with specific requirements and subjects that students must complete, which can be less flexible but more comprehensive.
3. Recognition and Opportunities: IB diplomas are internationally recognized and might provide an advantage in global opportunities and university admissions, especially if considering studying abroad. The recognition of gifted programs can be more localized but still holds significant merit, particularly in the U.S. and Canada.
4. Workload and Stress: IB programs are known for their rigor and heavy workload, which can be a challenge for even the most talented students. This might be a consideration depending on how your children manage workload and stress.
5. Future Goals: Consider what your children aspire to do in the future. If they are interested in fields that benefit from a specialized, intensive focus in areas like math and computer science, a gifted program might be more beneficial. If they seek a well-rounded education that prepares them for a variety of fields or global opportunities, the IB might be better.
Since your children excel in math and computer science, it could be valuable to look at what specific courses and extracurricular opportunities each program offers in these areas. Also, consider discussing the options with your children and their current teachers, who might provide insight based on your children's learning styles and academic needs.

高中是否GP好像不太重要了 -vicky2005(v大叔); 5-8 (#16084993@0)
我女儿当年就是从那里毕业的，没觉得不好。女儿是当年的学生主席，毕业还得了个校长奖。在那里她开心的度过了四年高中生活。GP老牌学校，GP一直到十二年级。相对普通班，GP学得深一点，里面的学生有点抱团玩的感觉，和普通班是两个玩的圈。 -yangmimimi(yangmimi); 5-8 (#16085281@0)

Gp到12年级太棒了！是不是现在基本华裔？会不会学习特别卷呢？谢谢🙏 -yyz6(yyz6); 5-8 {38} (#16085342@0)

请问don mills 有ap吗？我没看见说有呢

没有AP。各族裔都有，挺mix的。我看他们学习都非常好，上的都是自己喜欢的大学和专业。 -yangmimimi(yangmimi); 5-8 (#16085378@0)

Mix太好了请问是这2年毕业的吗？谢谢 -yyz6(yyz6); 5-8 (#16085384@0)

请教有没有目前在读的朋友介绍一下学校情况？谢谢 -yyz6(yyz6); 5-8 (#16086037@0)
