Secular homeschool all-in-one curricula, compared

8 programs, listed alphabetically, each with its grades, method, format and cost a year as the publisher’s own site showed them on October 29, 2026. Open a card for the strengths, the watch-outs and who it fits.

What this list holds

We label a program secular when the publisher's own pages call it secular, or describe the program and the publisher without any faith terms.

An all-in-one curriculum sells a year as one plan: the subjects, the schedule and the books or lessons that go with them. It saves the work of matching separate programs, and it means one publisher's choices across the board.

At a glance

  • All 8 show a price on the publisher's site. For one child and one year of the main package they run from $39.95 to $1,188.
  • How the child works: 5 books and workbooks, 2 on screen, 1 video lessons.
  • 5 of the 8 have a placement test or level guide on the publisher's site, linked on each card.
  • Grades: all reach pre-K or kindergarten, all reach the elementary grades, 7 reach middle school and 6 reach high school.

Each program in a line

  • Beyond the Page: A family with a curious, confident reader who wants science, social studies and language arts tied together through real books and projects, with a parent ready to lead each day.
  • BookShark: A family that wants a fully planned, book-based year with a free fifth day, and likes siblings sharing history and science.
  • Build Your Library: A family that wants a book-centered year planned for them at low cost, with time to read aloud together.
  • Miacademy: A family that wants the child to work through all subjects on screen at their own pace, with grading and attendance reports kept for them.
  • Oak Meadow: A family that wants a gentle, arts-rich year in print, with stories, crafts and nature woven into each week.
  • Power Homeschool: A family that wants video teaching in every subject with grading and records done for them, and a child who can work on a screen while a parent checks in.
  • Time4Learning: A family that wants the child to learn mostly on screen at their own pace, with grading and progress reports handled by the program.
  • Torchlight: A family that wants literature, history and science planned around read-aloud books and discussion, at a low price.

Before you buy

That label is the only thing these pages say about religion. If it matters to you, read the publisher's own pages.

Check which subjects are really in the package for your child's grade. Several full curricula leave math or language arts out and expect you to add your own, and science is sometimes a separate purchase.

Most publishers post samples and a placement test; each card links the placement test where the publisher has one.

How we label

Every fact on a card was read on the publisher's own website on the date shown, and the page it came from is linked. A fact we could not confirm there is left out. Costs are for one child and one year of the main package, as the publisher's page showed them that day; prices and sales change. Method and format are the publisher's own description where it gives one. The only thing we say about religion is one label, secular or faith-based, given by the rule above; where the publisher's pages don't settle it, the card has no label.
