Far Above Rubies www.aboverubies.net homeschool support A Complete Four Year High School Unit Study Curriculum for girls ages 11-12 all the way through high school graduation. by Lynda Coats (The Complete Revised & Definitive 2001 Edition, 600+ pages now in downloadable PDF format!)

Far Above Rubies is a full unit study curriculum, designed to cover all subjects for a complete high school education, including many suggestions for expanding into specialized areas of interest. Well-rounded curriculum useful for college preparatory purposes as well as offering a number of business and vocational skills. The primary goal of Far Above Rubies is to help Christian young ladies develop their character and abilities for useful service to the Lord within the family setting. We hope to help maturing Christian girls understand the importance of homemaking as a full-time profession, even for a woman who may have another profession or occupation as well. This curriculum (based on Proverbs 31: 10-31) stresses the importance of a woman making her family her number one earthly priority in terms of time and emotional commitment, and of seeing this as her life ‘calling' from God.

Far Above Rubies is meant to be a “self-directed” curriculum, which can be customized by both parents and the student, to best fit your girls' interests, goals and learning style. Students can "pick and choose" the assignments they wish to focus on to fulfill their course requirements.
