在这里上高中不比上语言学校管用啊.....某某，你误会了！那孩子来之所以进bell H就是因为那里有ESL课程。不是所有学校都有ESL的。楼主说的语言学校，在日本有专门的语言学校，留学生去日本留学考入大学前是要在语言学校先过度的。和加拿大的情况不太一样。
MJJ你误会我了啊，很多到这里来上高中的娃，都先去的YPLS几个月。到了8月底再考试，决定高中里上哪一级的ESL课。
YPLS是optional的。

BELL HIGH SCHOOL留学???!! Are you serious? I have been to that school for evening courses offered by the school board. That school is so run down and poorly maintained that it looks like it has been in decay for 50+ years. The lockers are rusted.... the list goes on. There is no air conditioning and the whole place is like an oven even in early summer. It reminds me of one of those in a housing estate in Hong Kong in 1970s, and I am shocked to see such a building in Canada, a supposedly "rich" country. I took a peek inside the chemistry lab, which was open for some courses (extremely filthy... and the state of fume cupboard...OMG). The periodic table hanging on the wall was stained and cracked, and..... the last element was still No. 103! I checked the Internet and there are now 120+ elements. What a joke!
The student body - I looked around the posters and pictures on the wall, and the names of the recent graduates - is largely of immigrant background. It looks like an inner-city type school, if you know what I mean. I remember several years ago that the news reported a fight between Jewish and Muslim students over some flags in the school hall at some sort of multicultural festival. I would not want to send my children to that school.
My husband told me that there is quite a number of elementary and secondary schools in the city that were built in the 1950s and 60s in the inner suburbs but were never upgraded as the population shifted to the outer suburbs beyond the Greenbelt. The Laurentian High School, which is now a Walmart, was one, Rideau High is another, and so is Bell. Spending that much money and effort to come all the way from China to go to Bell HS? Oh, please don't!!!!!

看来你不是住在Ottawa的西区，Bell HS 还是一所很不错的学校，特别是学校的gifted program。Ottawa西区的国际学生也统一安排在这所学校。

The Bell high is ok even though it is a bit old, and the facility may not be comparable with other new schools. It has gift program and many kids from Kanata go to this school. In terms of the facilities, in fact many schools in China may be way better than many school in Canada, but the main purpose of the kids coming to study in Canada is to get high school certificate and then they can move on to universities here. At least Bell High could provide that, so there is nothing wrong for them to study there.
还是看看学校排名吧!
BELL HS is 177/693. It is not great, but still good.
