Abeka Homeschool
Abeka Homeschool is a Christian curriculum for PreK–12 with traditional and video paths. The Abeka Academy pricing page shows a 10-month plan for Video & Books: accredited grades 1–6 at $148.40 a month, unaccredited grades 1–6 at $143.40 a month, and K5 at $98.40 or $93.40 a month. Other plans are on that page. The starting figure used here, $1,434, is the unaccredited grades 1–6 plan across 10 months, not a quote for high school or for every child. Abeka lists both accredited and unaccredited video options, so “accredited” on this page means an option exists, not that every box of books is an accredited school. Read the plan name before you compare it with a full-year tuition.
Alpha Omega Publications
Alpha Omega Publications (often searched as AOP or Monarch) is a Christian workbook and online curriculum for PreK–12. The Monarch page lists full access at $439.95 per student per year, or $43.95 a month, and a single course at $109.95 a year or $10.95 a month. The starting figure is the full-access yearly price. The Monarch FAQ on aop.com says Monarch is not accredited, so this listing is not marked as an accredited school. Delivery is tagged both self-paced and parent-directed. Our involvement estimate is high: someone still oversees the work even when the lessons are on a screen. Confirm whether you are pricing Monarch, a printed workbook line, or a single course.
Apologia
Apologia is a Christian science publisher for K–12. Items are priced one by one. The shop example we recorded is the Astronomy Build-Your-Own Set at $84.60 on sale, list $94.00. That is an example, not a yearly science budget and not a full curriculum, so there is no annual starting figure. Accreditation is n/a. A parent teaches from the textbook; our involvement estimate is high. You would add math, language arts, and history from somewhere else. When you compare science costs, compare the specific course (elementary science versus high-school biology) and check whether the sale price is still the price. A single kit on sale is not “the cost of Apologia.”
Heart of Dakota
Heart of Dakota is a Christian curriculum for PreK–12 in the Charlotte Mason and literature-based tags. A parent teaches. Accreditation is n/a, and a package price was not verified on the check date, so the price stays unknown. Our involvement estimate is high: these guides are written for a parent to lead short lessons and read-alouds. If you are deciding among Charlotte Mason options, AmblesideOnline is a free schedule, Master Books is tagged Charlotte Mason and workbook, and My Father's World adds unit study. Heart of Dakota’s price has to come from the publisher. We will not estimate it from similar programs.
Master Books
Master Books is a Christian publisher for PreK–12, tagged Charlotte Mason and workbook. The shop shows individual books, for example $27.99. One book is not a year, so we did not set an annual starting price. Accreditation was not confirmed and stays unknown. Delivery is both self-paced and parent-directed: some books are written for a student to do, and a parent still oversees them. Our involvement estimate is high. If you want a packaged classical set with a posted preschool price, see Memoria Press. If you want a free Charlotte Mason schedule, see AmblesideOnline. For Master Books, add up the books you would actually buy this year. The example price is only an example.
Memoria Press
Memoria Press is a Christian classical curriculum for PreK–12. The curriculum page showed a preschool set on sale at $235.42, with a list price of $271.72, and other grade sets priced separately. The starting figure is that preschool sale price. It is one set, not a high-school package, and a sale price can disappear. Accreditation is n/a. A parent teaches; our involvement estimate is high, which matches classical memory work and Latin done at the table. If you are comparing classical options, Classical Conversations adds a community day and AmblesideOnline is a free schedule. Memoria is a packaged curriculum you buy. Price the grade set you need, not the preschool example.
My Father's World
My Father's World is a Christian curriculum for PreK–12. In this directory its styles are unit study, literature-based, and Charlotte Mason, and delivery is parent-directed. We could not verify a current package price or an accreditation statement on the official pages checked October 17, 2026. Both stay unknown. Our involvement estimate is high: unit studies and living books are taught by a parent, often with more than one child in the same topic. If you are comparing it with Sonlight, compare the daily shape (one topic across subjects versus a literature list) and then ask each publisher for a current price. Do not fill the blank with a guess.
Sonlight
Sonlight is a Christian, literature-based curriculum listed for PreK–12. Families usually meet it as a book-filled core that a parent teaches. On October 17, 2026 the official pages we could check did not give a single price we could verify, and they did not state accreditation in a way we could record. Both fields stay unknown. Parent involvement is our estimate of high, because literature-based programs are tagged as parent-directed in this directory. Do not treat a missing price as “inexpensive” or “expensive.” Ask Sonlight for the current package price for your child’s level, including shipping and any extra subjects.
