How we curate

Every entry is researched against the publisher's official page plus at least two independent reviews — Cathy Duffy, Rainbow Resource, and homeschool community sources — so the grade range, religious content, philosophy fit, and cost reflect reality, not guesses.

We tag each curriculum on a 9-value religious-content scale (secular through classical Christian) and a 6-value teaching-philosophy axis (classical, Charlotte Mason, eclectic, traditional textbook, unit studies, and unschooling-leaning), so you can find something that fits your family without reading 30 reviews first.

Each row is reviewed before it's published. Pricing is approximate; always confirm with the publisher before purchasing.
