Anna Larson earned her Bachelor’s degree in Agriculture and Biology Education and a Teaching Certificate from Purdue University in 2001. She has spent 14 years classically home educating her own six children and other children cooperatively. She is passionate about disciple-making within the local church and studying and teaching the Scriptures. Whether studying the Bible or academic subjects, it is important to Anna that students of any age connect knowledge both practically and meaningfully to real life situations.

She has lived for short periods in both Puerto Rico and Russia and studied several foreign languages, most recently Latin. In her free time, she gardens, hikes with her family, and teaches her children to sew. Anna and her husband, Ben, live in West Lafayette and their youngest three children attend the Academy.
