What high school literature & electives are (vs a diploma plan)
High school literature guides and electives help you build credit-friendly courses — novels, writing-adjacent lit work, and elective subjects — without buying an entire K–12 package.
They are not a complete diploma spine by themselves, not a K–8 (or 6–8 all-in-one) solution, and not a replacement for math, lab science, or your state’s credit rules.
You still combine them with a core plan for the rest of high school. This page features 7Sisters Homeschool, with a shop link, for Christian 9–12 lit guides and electives.

Shop 7Sisters Homeschool →What “electives + lit guides” means in practice
Literature guides help you walk novels and lit analysis without inventing every discussion question. Elective titles help you fill transcript gaps — think flexible courses that sit beside math and science rather than replacing them. Low–medium parent time assumes you still coach writing load, due dates, and credit logging. If you need teacher-led science video for the same teen, keep Journey on its own page. If you need a browseable Christian course library across ages, that is SchoolhouseTeachers.com — a membership library, not the same as 9–12 lit guides.
How to combine with a core spine
Use 7Sisters for literature and electives; keep other credits intentional: Christian literature-based or traditional packages → Christian guide; busy-parent open-and-go kits/guides → open-and-go; Christian online membership library → membership; middle/high school science video courses → Journey science; math specialists → math 3-way; scheduling the mix → homeschool planner (planner tool — not curriculum). Always check your state’s (or umbrella school’s) credit and transcript expectations. Guides help you teach; they do not automatically equal credits everywhere.
How we compared
We compared on Christian worldview, grades 9–12, single-subject lit/electives scope, low budget, low–medium parent time, and books/online format — and we are clear you still need a separate core. This page covers grades 9–12, not K–8. See Methodology. Read our affiliate disclosure.
FAQ
Is 7Sisters a full high school curriculum?
No. It fits as literature guides and electives for Christian 9–12 — not a complete diploma spine. Combine with cores for math, science, history, and other credits.
Can I use 7Sisters in middle school?
This page covers grades 9–12. 7Sisters also sells literature guides for middle school and elementary students; check its site for those.
Is this secular?
No — featured option is Christian. Secular high school shoppers should use the quiz and secular guide for other paths.
How do electives work for transcripts?
Follow your state, co-op, or umbrella requirements. Guides and elective courses are tools for teaching; credit rules vary. When unsure, ask your umbrella school or experienced local advisor.
Open-and-go for high school — really?
7Sisters guides and courses are ready-made with lower prep than building every elective from scratch. You still mentor a high schooler. Open-and-go is not “parent disappears.”
