题目：

Getting a good education is more important today than ever before. It is the best thing you can do to build a better future for your children and yourself.

Most children in Canada attend public schools. Public schools are completely founded by governments through tax (税收) income. Boys and girls attend the same school and share the same courses and classes. Schooling in Canada is provided in English and in French.

The rest of Canadian children attend private schools，which are supported mainly by fees (费) paid directly by parents. Some private schools enroll (招收) only boys or girls.

By law，children must attend school from age 5 to 16.Children are usually in school between 8：30 or 9：00 a．m.，and 3：00 or 4：00 p．m.Monday through Friday，from September to the middle of June. There are several different levels in the Canadian education system. The first is called Elementary Schools. In most provinces Elementary Schools include Kindergarten through Grade 7 or 8.

From Grade 8 or 9 through 12 or 13，children go to Secondary School or High School. High School students must take certain courses for several years，such as English or French and mathematics. Some courses help students get a job after they graduate from school. Other courses prepare students for college or university. In Canada，teenagers usually make these choices for themselves，with the advice of their teachers，guidance counselor (指导教师) and parents.

Schools usually offer extra activities at the end of the normal school day. These include sports，games，music and clubs.

Most elementary and high schools encourage parents to take part in school activities. Parents' nights are organized from time to time. These are chances for parents to discuss their children's progress with teachers. You may wish to bring a friend with you. After graduating from high school，many young adults continue their studies through post­secondary education.
