    I found a file on my old computer that someone sent me a couple years ago. Turns out it's full abeka curriculum for all grades prek through 12. I'm thinking about just using it for DD for 8th grade. She will have to do the 9th or 10 grade math though since she's already doing pre-algebra. It has all the teachers guides and everything I'd need. I just don't know if it's something she will like. Has anyone used it at the higher grades. I've heard mixed feelings about the lower grades. Thanks.

    We are using BJU which is similiar to Abeka. My children love it. When I tried to switch them to anything else they always ask if they can go back to BJU. I have given up on trying anything else.

    We no longer use A Beka but it is a great program if your children enjoy traditional methods of learning. I think A Beka is thorough program.

    Abeka is a very solid program, for sure! I like the high school stuff better than the elementary, actually.
