Monarch review
A flexible digital curriculum with broad course choices and automatic grading.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Monarch is a digital Christian homeschool curriculum and management platform for families educating students in grades 3–12. Parents can schedule the school year, assign courses, monitor progress, and maintain records, while students work through self-paced interactive multimedia lessons. The catalog covers core subjects, Bible, electives, and career courses, with customizable course selection across grade levels.
Pricing is available by course or for the full catalog, with monthly and annual billing. Single Course costs $10.95 per student per month or $109.95 per student per year. Full Access costs $43.95 per student per month or $439.95 per student per year and includes 50 core courses plus 60 elective and career courses. Each plan includes over 85% automatic grading and allows cancellation at any time. A 30-day free trial provides a way to review the curriculum before committing.
Monarch’s main advantage is the combination of curriculum delivery and school-management tools. Course scheduling, assignment, automatic grading, progress monitoring, and recordkeeping support families that want students to work independently while parents retain oversight. Its broad catalog can accommodate families combining core requirements with Bible, elective, or career study, while individual-course subscriptions suit narrower needs. Choose Monarch if self-paced digital learning and customizable Christian coursework fit your program. Families seeking a secular curriculum, a free plan, or coverage outside grades 3–12 should consider a different option.
