I'm not sure what "ag kids" are. 

There are many secular curriculum out there.  Five in a Row has both a religious and secular program.  I think Oak Meadows is also secular.  You can also set up your own curriculum.

I use AmblesideOnline.  I took all the religious stuff out of our schedule.  It's Charlotte Mason based and my kids love it.  It's also an accelerated curriculum.  I find it very thorough, fun, and gentle enough not to get boring.

I'm getting mine from the homeschool supercenter online.  They offer 3 levels of packages for secular home schoolers.  I figured by the time you give a PS child lunch money everyday, a pre-done package is more than paid for!!!!!

I almost answered this post with a lot of links, but every one of the websites I was going to list can be found at http://www.educateyourkids.org/ ... so I figured I would just list this one!  :)

I have been using Oak Meadows an non-religious complete curriculum.  We Love it.  There are "stories" from the Bible but then there are stories from Egypt, Africa and other places and lots of myths too.  My kids love the Greek myths the best. We have been using it for 7 years now.

What I like is the lessons span all the subjects...for example...in the Egypt lesson we started with where Egypt was on a world map, then spelling words for local things there and then built the temple and pyramid ending with the writings of the times.  Our diorama of  the temple with jars and all was so sweet.  My girls still play with it (with their bobble-heads). 

It is not religous at all.  Which my husband likes too.

Hope this helps.  Oak Meadows has a web site and you can see a set of lessons.  Enjoy.
