6年级-公立;7年级-私立;马上进入8年级-小白鼠美国求学记

回复 124楼观风 的帖子

想请问,读公立高中,需要托福和ssat吗?公立就是按居住片区,对吗,是不是好的公立也要这两个成绩?

抱歉晚复。

据我了解,如果孩子本身签证F1, 不一定需要托福成绩,但是如果有较好的托福成绩也可以提供。 这种情况通常是上私立学校。而各州不同的私立学校都有自己的入学要求,可以参看学校网站了解具体情况。 如果入读公立学校,通常有最长期限为1年的交换生。可以咨询一些口碑较好的留学中介了解公立学校的高中交换生项目。通常较知名的留学中介有较好的资源和途径了解这些项目。

如果孩子是跟随父母赴美,签证为L2,F2,或者其他作为法定被抚养者的签证身份,可以轻松入读公立学校,原则上是按照居住区域决定的。当然孩子完全可以自己申请私立学校。

抱歉这个问题我很难给出精准的数字。

牙医和普通医生不同,在美国,很多人认为牙医是一个产业。牙科医生是采用标准商业运作模式。
美国的医疗保险通常不包含牙医。保险人需要单独买牙齿保险。牙齿保险五花八门,云里雾里,我完全搞不清楚。另外,有一些医疗保险项目可以附带一些dentist discout program. 如果客户愿意额外再缴纳一些保费,就可以在一些指定机构看牙时得到折扣。折扣率是保险公司定义的,视不同项目,大概可以享受10~40%的折扣。这些信息仅供参考,所有的保险类别和折扣等都需要具体问题具体分析。

我家娃是使用了一个折扣项目,全程下来价格为3350刀,分18个月付费。
如果我们完全没有保险或者折扣项目,就是全自费病人。口碑较好,环境优雅的私人诊所大概价格在5500~6000刀之内。包括全程2年左右的所有项目(拔牙不算)以及结束后的一副保持器。这个价格和上海九院差不多吧。

希望对您有所帮助。

不客气! 多啰嗦一句,我这边是南部中等城市,美国挺大的,各州情况也不尽相同,我提供的信息仅供参考。

公校和私校有很多不同.我就不一一列举了.相信您在很多渠道上也都有了解.对我们的情况而言,我总结一下是: 公校的利小于私校的弊. 

我觉得回答为什么很重要.

最大的不同来自于孩子的受关注度-私校师生比10:1,公校20:1,客观上老师也会给每个孩子分摊到更多关注;同时,老师(相对而言)责任心更强,会相对更主动关心学生.

通过这样的过程,孩子逐渐建立了自信,敢于发展自己的个性,再受到鼓励和肯定,加强自信.如此良性循环.

每个孩子情况不同,我说的是我的体会供您参考!

是的。六年级读公立。七年级申请私利,考试,面试,入读。考试是标准化考试,中国娃不用担心考试不过。

抱歉晚复。

我看到中国DukeTip项目是我上次在查询这个像项目时在官网上看到的。具体情况没有打电话咨询过。

Dates, Location, and Fees

Duke TIP Summer Studies Programs are superb academic opportunities and dynamic residential and social experiences for seventh and eighth graders. These three-week sessions are intense and demanding; students are challenged to think critically about themselves and their world.

Dates and Location
•July 5–July 25
•Duke Kunshan University

Fees

$4,250 USD. The required program fee covers all program fees, books, materials, room, and board.

进入美国夏校有设置好的特殊流程。按照我前边说过的,孩子们需要参加SAT或者ACT测试,考试成绩会直接报告给 DukeTip项目。项目根据成绩决定是否邀请孩子进入夏令营。家娃数学优势明显,取得了28分(总分36分),因此被邀请进入高级别夏令营。共有两个时间段(6月及7月),分别有三个校区可选,课程的设置不完全相同,各有特色。 我还在纠结是否给孩子报名。

如果您在国内,想要参加,查询了官方网站后我发现有如下说明,供您参考:

旅游签证能否陪读,每半年出境一次

周围有这种案例。但是很多其他妈妈也跟帖提醒了,大家还是要多多注意。小心为妙。
