In Letters & Devotion a ninth grader takes Bible: Survey and Christian Doctrine (84+ hours), Algebra I (55+ hours), Biology (75+ hours), English 9 (66+ hours) and World Geography (54+ hours), plus Health Literacy, Personal Finance, Spanish I and Physical Education. Hours and a transcript log themselves, and every course is published in full.

Bible: survey and Christian doctrine

Four units, 84+ hours: The Old Testament Books, The New Testament Books and the Canon, God, Christ, Spirit, and Salvation, Church, Last Things. The King James Version, every grade.

Algebra I

Eight units: Linear Relationships as Rules, Graphs and Stories, Systems of Linear Equations, Linear Inequalities and Absolute Value, Function Notation, Introduction to Quadratic Functions, Solving Quadratic Equations, Piecewise Functions, and Modeling with Data. It follows the Common Core State Standards.

Biology, and where the family chooses

Twelve units, from the chemistry of life and cells through genetics, a unit called Creation and the Origin of Life, ecology and human body systems, to a capstone evidence-based argument. At signup you pick "Creation" or "Creation, with evolution taught alongside". With the second, Biology 9 teaches evolution by natural selection next to the Creation unit, accurately, as what mainstream science says and why.

English 9

Nine units: point of view and narrative reliability, a novel read whole, Shakespeare, reading and comparing arguments, writing narrative and argument, research, and a multi-genre portfolio with a second novel.

Geography, health, finance, Spanish and PE

World Geography has eight units from the geographer's toolkit to regional studies of the Americas, Europe, Africa and the Middle East, and Asia and the Pacific. Health Literacy, Personal Finance, Spanish I and Physical Education are separate courses.

What this is not

It cannot promise any college will accept a homeschool transcript. It prints one of what was taught and mastered, and your family issues it.
It has no course labeled AP or honors, and no language beyond Spanish II.
It is a lot of courses. You decide which to take, which to hold back and how many to do in a day.

What grade(s)? (so their first lesson is ready)

Before your child starts: what we collect and why

We collect only what it takes to teach your child: the first name and sign-in you choose, their answers and progress, and their chat with Clara (written by Anthropic's AI, read aloud by OpenAI). Nobody trains AI on it or sells it, and you can see or delete it any time. You create your child's account yourself. Ticking the box below is how you, as the parent, give consent.

Read what we collect and why

Your consent is needed before we collect anything from your child, and we collect nothing without it. You create your child's account yourself; they never sign up alone.

What we collect from your child: the first name and sign-in you choose, their answers, time on lessons and progress, and their chat with Clara. Used to run the lessons, build their transcript and show you how they are doing.
Who else handles it: Anthropic writes Clara's replies from the chat, the lesson and your child's first name. OpenAI turns lesson text and Clara's replies into the read-aloud voice. Spoken answers are turned into text on our own server and never sent anywhere. Our email provider sends you reports. Nobody sells your child's data or uses it for anything else.
Your rights: see everything collected from your child, have it deleted, or stop further collection at any time, from your account or by emailing our support address. If you refuse the sharing above, Clara cannot teach, so the service cannot run. Chats are deleted after 30 days.
Safety: if your child writes something suggesting they may be hurt or in danger, we email you and the owner of Letters & Devotion the same day.

Ticking the box below is how you, as the parent, give that consent. Full details, including how long we keep each thing: Privacy Policy (version 2026-10-09).

I am this child's parent or guardian, and I agree to the above.

Free for 30 days. No card. When the free days end, lessons pause unless you choose to subscribe, $29 a month for every child in the family. Nothing is ever charged without a card.

By continuing you agree to the Terms and Privacy Policy.
