   I love Timberdoodle for supplemental materials! I used them 8 years ago when I homeschooled my 3 kids and just picked up a couple of things now that I am homeschooling a teen.

   Great people, great service.

   Penn Foster is great for high school.

   I went to a public HS 9th and 10th grade, then transferred my credits, If I was in Public HS Now, I’d bearly be finishing the 11th grade, but I already received my HS diploma, and completed the program.. Going to a Community College now!

   I answered a similar question earlier this morning. Here is my "cut and paste":

   =========
   Here are some great places for curriculum:

   Rainbow Resource Center (they’re catalog is 3 inches thick, with very fine print! They have Christian and Secular items:
   http://www.rainbowresource.com/index.php

   Christian Book Distributors (mostly Christian, some secular):
   http://www.cbd.com

   Library and Educational Services (sells wholesale to HS’ers -has mostly Christian but a lot of secular also):
   http://www.libraryanded.com

   For used items:
   Ebay (you’ll drown in all that’s available! You cannot purchase teacher’s guides there.)

   Homeschool Buy (you can purchase teacher’s guides):
   http://homeschoolbuy.com/

   Vegsource:
   http://www.vegsource.com/homeschool/

   Paperback Swap (everything is FREE with credits…I just rec’d a $120 text!!):
   http://www.paperbackswap.com

   There are many, many others. You want to find out you and/or your child’s learning style before deciding on curriculum. You should attend a HS’ing convention to see the vendor halls and all that is available.
   ============
   Oh, and check out The Homeschool Buyers Co-op. They have GREAT deals and lots of info on their site. It’s free to join:

   http://www.homeschoolbuyersco-op.org

   EDITED TO ADD: Why would someone give a "thumbs down" for this answer? It makes no sense.
