Many parents are very happy to have the assistance of these homeschool programs as an essential part of their educational endeavors. Others, like a devout Catholic father and grandfather of many homeschooled children who I spoke with, would say that they haven't pulled their children out of school just to have someone else tell them what to do. Catholic teaching has always been quite clear that the parents are the primary educators and that they have a right to choose how their children are educated. These Catholic programs offer their curriculum at the service of the family.

Homeschool programs bring varying degrees of accountability and guidance for homeschool parents. They offer a certain sense of security, particularly for new homeschoolers and those homeschooling high-schoolers. When trying to decide which program to use or whether or not to use a program, the most important thing to do is to pray (preferably as a family) to discern God's will and to have the grace to follow it. It is worthwhile to consider your children's learning styles, your own academic abilities, state law, and college admissions requirements in making this decision. Please visit the linked websites and/or order catalogs for more information on each program.

For those wishing to work more independently or looking for a little help with homeschooling on their own, there are a number of Catholic companies (including some of the programs listed below) that allow you to purchase their lesson plans without being signed up with a particular school. Click here for our page on Catholic lesson plans.

Catholic homeschool programs are listed below in alphabetical order. A listing does not imply endorsement by love2learn.net or any of our contributors, but is provided as a service to homeschool families.
