家长和学生要了解美国高中,除了实地参观访问,最好认真阅读学校网站的每一个页面,了解学校宗旨和日常活动细节。我们综合了几所寄宿高中的学生手册翻译成中文,并加以解读,帮助家长和学生全面了解美国高中。
我们强烈建议家长首选寄宿学校,不考虑走读学校,原因之一就是晚自习安排不同,一个是有,一个是没有。很难想象走读家庭对学生的晚自习的管理模式。
只推荐家长考虑寄宿学校,如果家长不去陪读的话,也就是:学生住在学校的学生宿舍(不是寄宿家庭模式),一日三餐吃在学校食堂的模式。
单纯从各种硬件设施看,优秀的私立走读学校、优秀的公立学校,与私立寄宿学校差距不大,但考虑到人均就差距很大了。更由于受校车时间限制,或者寄宿家庭接送条件限制,绝大部分走读学校的学生很少参加学校的各种课外活动,这样即便最好升入了理想的大学,我们也认为高中生活不完美,家长的花费不值得。
Study Hours
晚自习时间
Study Hall is held Sunday through Friday in the evenings. This is a dedicated time used to accomplish much of the assigned school work. Students will be required to study in a designated space such astheir room, dorm common room, library, academic resource center or insupervised study. Students assigned to supervised study must report to the designated space on time to avoid disciplinary consequences.
晚自习时间在周日到周五的晚上。这一段时间是专门给学生用来完成指定的学习任务的。学生被要求在指定的地点学习,比如他们的房间、宿舍楼公共休息室、图书馆、学术资源中心或者被监督学习。被要求在监督下学习的学生必须按时到达指定的地点,否则会违纪处理。

Like a home, once underformer ( III through V Forms) are in the dormitory for the evening, they stay in.
