Thanks for the reply. Every month, I fly back Toronto for a long weekend. So it is not perfect but best I can do if we keep this way.

如果你打算将来就让他们上加拿大大学,不考虑美国学校,那就把他们留在加拿大读书,加拿大学校比美国学校轻松,压力小.加拿大大学学费也便宜很多.

再给你个TIPS.我们这里的高中生如果想去加拿大上大学,在选课的时候根本就不选Honors/Accelerated,只需要选Standard,这样比较轻松的拿到好看的成绩单,而加拿大大学据说就看这个漂亮的成绩单就够了,所以想回加拿大读大学也不是难事.

加拿大学校教学进度落后美国一年左右.课外活动也比加拿大丰富的多,如果你有打算叫孩子转学美国,越早越好.你可以先了解一下你周围的学校,美国学校系统也有gift programs.

Thanks for the tips. Not all state has such program as I know; there isn't gift program in the state where I live.

那就找好学区,好的公立学校也不错.美国学校一般规模要大于加拿大,学生人数多,各种活动,CLUB有一定规模.孩子见识会不同.但要是进了差的学校,那还不如留在加拿大,加拿大公立学校水平相对平均,美国学校好坏差别很大,

什么叫" 加拿大学校教学进度落后美国一年左右", 估计你没有在美国生活过, 不熟悉美国的中小学校系统. 两地的学校制度系统不同. 比较教学进度没有道理. 课外活动不好比. 看孩子.

我们现在就在美国生活.我们家二个孩子在加拿大读的中学和小学.现在在美国读高中和中学.这是我个人比较的结果,不代表其它人的意见.

兄弟,在加拿大,教学课程是全省一个标准, education is run by province. 在美国每个城市有它自己的教学课程标准. education is run by local town/city. 教学课程标准 is not the same, so it doesn't make sense to compare 教学进度.

呵呵,其实争这个有意义吗?我就是给LZ从个人角度比较的经验,你非扯出别的,你意思是美国教育没有标准?给你看看本州年年进行的州同考吧,十年级数学英文不能通过同考都拿不到毕业证书的.

兄弟, 您这比较法 misleading people. 教学进度落后不落后, 要看Curriculum, 知道Curriculum 不? 你又扯出 Assessment test., 二码事.

哎呀, 兄弟, MA 和 ON 能比教学进度吗?, if you compare Ontario Curriculum with this MA Curriculum " FRAMEWORK". you will know you cannot 比教学进度.

Also your link is a Curriculum " FRAMEWORK" for MA local school boards. local town will decide its Curriculum " following the direction of this frameworks . Ontario Curriculum is a Curriculum for all school in Ontario, which even asignes course codes

加拿大是有标准,安省EQAO只有三六九年级考,本州可是3-10年级年年要同考的哦.

Befor talk, make sure you understand the concepts. Talk to your kid's school teachers about " Curriculum," you will get the idea.

具体来说,当你转学的时候就会发现,说是二国差别不大,其实差别不小,连Grading System都不同.想起当年孩子班里一个从美国移民转学过来的孩子,四年级的数学她在美国三年级都学过了,那时就有感觉,现在我们从加转美国,真正有了体会,不得不请家教追赶学校进度.

再多说一句,你家老大已经六年级.按照我们这里中学的情况,七年级数学课就已经按照六年级的成绩分Accelerated和Standard了.

去美国吧,只要工作够稳定或愿意TAKE RISK...一起成长比GIFTED更重要

When I worked in WI, there was a Chinese family moved from Toronto. The husband was very happy to work in the company, but his wife just couldn't adapt to the life, missing her old friends a lot. Within a year, they left to Toronto.

That was in 2000, I could feel the husband was really sad to leave a good company which he hoped to stay longer. I was kind of surprised he finally made decision for his wife's happiness. So where is this good guy now in Toronto?

我们全家一起搬到美国。孩子上middle school。在加拿大也是gifted program的,转过来承认加拿大那边的WSC-IV成绩。现在所在城市小,学校没有专门的gifted class,孩子language和math被安排在advanced class,数学在学高一年级的课,language阅读的材料不一样。

Whenever I remember we had to drive 75 miles to the nearest Chinese market for the weekly grocery shopping, and our colleagues joked about our Asian English accent, I would appreciate great Toronto.Kids are Americans, they choose to go back if they want.
We get enough assets from the US, now we stay in Canada for fun and leisure. Canada's education system is not bad, and the US 's education system is not that good as well, we came from the US school system, and know at least, there is less race issues in Canada.

美国的数学,科学比加拿大难, 初中都有游泳池, 设备非常好. 更重要的, 我觉地美国人把小孩早早地当大人看, 小学四五年级的学生就在食堂帮忙, 在学校附近的路口指挥交通, 接送低年级小孩上下校车, 不象加拿大把孩子当成不能自理的小傻瓜. 但是, 没有法语课
