Comments: "This curriculum is an excellent, all-inclusive curriculum (although it can also be purchased by "core" subjects only, or by individual subject). While the initial price of $1275 posted on the web site can seem very daunting, there are significant discounts for ordering early and through a parent representative. This initial price can be easily lowered to around $875 per child for the complete program. This is significantly less than most private schools charge, and yet the program is better than that provided by most private schools.

It is rigorous, hands-on, interactive, and extremely well done. Lesson planning, lesson tracking, and lesson scripting are all done for the parent, although the parent has the option of using these helps or not. Most lessons have various optional activities which address all the different learning modalities. This program is laid out very Classically, and is easily adapted for use with the Classical method. It could also be used quite compatibly with the unit method. While not explicitly Christian, it is a didactic, fact-based program which can be easily harmonized with a Christian world view.

While this program has occasionally received bad press due to the fact that many virtual charter schools use it, it is also used by many independent homeschoolers with great results.

I can truly recommend it wholeheartedly!"
