Quick take
Choose All In One Curriculum when you want secular, one-time PDF grade packs, you are fine that evolution lessons are included, and you will teach from the parent guide.
Choose SchoolhouseTeachers.com when you want a Christian membership library and you will pick the courses, rather than follow one prescribed year.
There is no trophy winner. These are not two versions of the same product. One is a secular grade pack you buy. The other is a Christian course library you join. The split is worldview and how you buy, not rigor.

Day-to-day differences
All In One Curriculum days come from a downloaded grade pack. Their product FAQ says the files are digital, nothing is mailed, and you start on a computer, tablet, or phone, or you print what you want. Each pack includes a parent teaching guide and a student course book. “Open-and-go” means the lessons are already written. It does not mean a school runs the day, and it does not mean your child works with no parent. Parent time stays medium.
Their product FAQ also says the curriculum is secular and does not pursue a political or religious agenda. It includes lessons on evolution, presented so students learn the concept and form their own opinions. You can add religious teaching yourself. That is not a Christian curriculum. Preschool is its own pack of early activities. Do not assume a preschool download is the same course as a high school pack.
SchoolhouseTeachers.com days are courses you pick from a membership library. Their FAQ says you choose what to use, set the pace, and adapt it. Lessons are online, to view or print. Almost all courses have a written component, and many include video, interactive pieces, or other media. A growing set is on the interactive platform, iST. One membership covers the immediate family, including more than one grade at the same time. No physical box is mailed. Most courses do not need another textbook, except certain honors-level college-prep courses. Some courses recommend books, often from the library, and a few upper-level courses require a purchased text. Parent time stays medium because you are still choosing and teaching.
School Boxes are optional year-by-subject guides inside that library. Their School Boxes page says you can adjust them, or set them aside and pick courses yourself. They do not turn the membership into one prescribed year. The FAQ also says this is not an accredited school. You keep the records.
Who should pick All In One Curriculum
Fits families who want secular PDF grade packs with a parent teaching guide and a student course book, and who accept evolution lessons in the science.
Pick All In One Curriculum if:
You want a secular spine and will add faith yourself if you want it
You want one-time grade packs, not a membership
You want the parent guide to lay out the lessons
Medium parent time for teaching those lessons is acceptable
A low budget for digital packs, preschool through grade 12, is the shape you want
Skip All In One Curriculum if you need Christian readings, a program with no evolution lessons, or a teacher on the other side of a screen. It is not a live online school.
Fits Christian families who want a Biblical course library for the whole household, and who will build the year from courses rather than follow one required plan.
Pick SchoolhouseTeachers.com if:
You want a Christian curriculum that presents God as Creator
You want one family membership across preschool through high school
You are fine choosing courses, or using a School Box and changing it
Medium parent time for choosing and teaching is acceptable
You might use it as the whole year, or only as a supplement
Skip SchoolhouseTeachers.com if you need a secular spine, one mailed grade pack, or an accredited school of record. It is not secular, and it is not a school.
A Christian literature year with shipped books and an Instructor’s Guide. See Sonlight vs BookShark.
A Charlotte Mason living-books plan you assemble, rather than PDF packs or a course library.
A classical, Latin-heavy program with high parent involvement.
An accredited online school or a public virtual school. Neither program enrolls your student.
A program whose science does not include evolution lessons. All In One Curriculum includes them. SchoolhouseTeachers.com is a Christian library, not that secular science filter.
“Neither” is a valid answer. We will not force a winner.
All In One Curriculum
Fits families who want secular PDF grade packs with a parent teaching guide and a student course book, and who accept evolution lessons in the science.
Fits Christian families who want a Biblical course library for the whole household, and who will build the year from courses rather than follow one required plan.
We compared these two because families shopping for a preschool-through-high-school year often land on a PDF grade pack and a membership library and treat them as the same kind of school. They are not. We did not rank them by how complete the library looks, and we did not rank them by rigor.
All In One Curriculum is secular, low budget, medium parent time, digital PDFs, and open-and-go for planning. You buy grade packs. Evolution lessons are part of the product. SchoolhouseTeachers.com is Christian, mid budget, medium parent time, and online. You join a family library. Optional School Boxes can sketch a year, and you can change them. Neither one is an accredited school.
All In One wording is taken from the publisher’s grade-pack FAQ and homepage (retrieved October 4, 2026): secular, no political or religious agenda, evolution lessons so students can learn the concept and form their own opinions, digital PDFs with no books mailed, a parent teaching guide and a student course book, and packs from preschool through the K–12 range. SchoolhouseTeachers.com wording is taken from its FAQ and School Boxes page (retrieved October 4, 2026): a Christian, Biblical worldview that presents God as Creator, parents choose what to use, hundreds of courses from preschool through high school, one membership for the immediate family, usable as a full curriculum or a supplement, School Boxes described as adaptable, and not an accredited school.
Which is better, All In One Curriculum or SchoolhouseTeachers.com?
Neither is better for every family. All In One Curriculum when you want secular PDF grade packs and can teach evolution lessons from the parent guide. SchoolhouseTeachers.com when you want a Christian course library and will choose the courses. Take the quiz if worldview is not your first filter.
Is All In One Curriculum Christian?
No. Its product FAQ says the curriculum is secular and does not pursue a political or religious agenda. It includes lessons on evolution so students learn the concept and form their own opinions. You may add religious teaching yourself. That does not make the pack a Christian curriculum.
Is SchoolhouseTeachers.com one school year?
No. It is a membership library. You choose the courses, and you can use it as the whole curriculum or as a supplement. School Boxes are optional year guides you can change or skip. The publisher says it is not an accredited school.
Are both open-and-go?
For planning, yes. All In One Curriculum’s parent guide lays out the lessons. SchoolhouseTeachers.com opens a course, and you still decide which courses belong in the year. For the parent’s day, no: both are medium parent time. Open-and-go is not unsupervised seatwork, and it is not a live school.
Do they cover high school?
Yes. All In One Curriculum sells grade packs through high school. SchoolhouseTeachers.com includes high school courses in the library. Match the pack or the course list to your student. Neither one enrolls your student in a school.
