Biology Lab only kit?

[OakParkOwlets]

I don't need an entire curriculum, I just want a pre-packaged, stand alone, ready-to-go, or mostly ready-to-go set of labs that actually work and are useful but would be enough to cover the lab portion of a high school credit.

Home Science Tools probably has something that would work.

The kit from The Home Scientist meets most of your requirements, but the kit does not include everything (mostly common household materials like alcohol and a few other things like water weed or materials from a local pond to make little aquatic environments; if you get the bacteria culture, you need a pressure cooker). Also, many of the labs take quite a lot of time. The lab manual is a free download, or you can buy a hard copy of the text.

We are doing the chemistry labs now, and I was able to get just the chemicals for that because we already had all of the equipment from the bio set. I can't say that either my kids or I love it, but it does do the job of meeting the lab requirement.

Their stuff looks really good, I wish they had a physics book.
