Mount Pleasant School

I am in grade 5 and have been here for almost 6 years, this school is cogito, it can be challenging but it prepares your children for life and better prepares them for junior high. they will understand things better using the strategies they are taught. This school also has a lot of other leadership options within the school like clubs in music and art they have clubs for extra art and music, kids can also supervise the kindergartens, grade 1's and 2's I supervise and I love it, the school has a lot more in it than just the program, enroll your kids, its the right choice.

Didn’t actually go there, but, it’s pretty much a block away from my house. It’s a school that only the future doctors and engineers go to. If your kids first language isn’t English, they won’t let you in. If you have something like ADHD or some type of special need they won’t let you in. Pretty unfair to be honest.

Man, this place was great, except for the strictly enforced unfair rules (2 weeks no recess for tossing a snowball), exclusion of ESL and challenged kids, the no hurt environment (tag and soccer were banned), & forced transition to Allendale. - Some edgy 14 year old former student

Very good school! Cogito program is very academic but doable! It may be a shocker for someone who isn't used to getting homework everyday but it's not overly crazy either. As kids progress into higher grades homework load increases too. Again, your kid can do it!! Kids need challenges to make things interesting for them otherwise they get bored in the regular program. The structured learning helps the child to exercise discipline and achieve a high level of academic excellence. There is definitely not much focus on physical activity like sports. But you can surely enroll your child in other extra curricular activities outside the school.
