Whether you’re brand new to homeschooling or you’ve been at this for awhile, the teen years can often feel overwhelming. It can be tough trying to figure out the best homeschooling curriculum for high school!
While I’ve homeschooled both of my children since they started Kindergarten, last year was our first year of high school. I’ll admit that even with many years of homeschooling under my belt, I still felt my fair share of anxiety while trying to figure out the best resources to use.
The good news is that I’ve discovered some pretty awesome resources that we ended up using last year and we are continuing to use some of them this year as well.

I’ve compiled a list of some of our favorite homeschooling resources that I want to share with you!
Best Homeschooling Curriculum for High School
I’m hoping this list will help simplify the selection process for you and that you’ll be able to find plenty of appealing options!
I’ve organized this list by subject and have included links to relevant Homegrown Scholars blog posts that you’ll also find helpful.
Here we go!
Note: The majority of the resources listed below are ones that my family has used and wholeheartedly recommend. However, if you see an * before any materials listed, this indicates a resource that I have not personally used but have heard great things about from homeschooling families I know and trust.
BEST FREE HOMESCHOOLING CURRICULUM FOR high SCHOOL
Hey, why not dive into resources that are completely FREE first!?!

FREE online homeschooling resources – This is a blog post where I’ve listed A TON of FREE, high-quality online resources.
BEST ONLINE MEMBERSHIP COMMUNITIES FOR HOMESCHOOLING high SCHOOL:
It is CRITICAL that you find homeschooling support! In my experience, I found that in some ways it was easier to connect with other homeschooling families when my children were younger. As they hit the tween years and entered middle school, their personal interests and the friendships they’d formed on their own meant that our community changed too. It’s continued to change as my oldest has entered high school.
For this reason, I think it’s truly essential to stay connected with other homeschoolers, someway, somehow. If you’re struggling to find homeschooling friends locally, or a co-op or group where you feel comfortable and welcome, there are some wonderful virtual options!
While there are plenty of FREE online options, I’ve found paying for homeschooling support/community/coaching to be worth every penny I’ve spent. It truly was an investment in my self-care and well-being, as well as to the success of our homeschooling!
