Who We Are
Our Purpose
Living Education Academy exists to give children a richer way to learn. We believe meaningful education happens when the head, heart, and hands work together. Instead of memorizing facts in a classroom, students at LEA experience growth through curiosity, exploration, and connection in the outdoors.
Our Philosophy
At Living Education Academy, we believe education should nurture the whole child. True growth happens when learning shapes the mind, emotions, actions, wellness, and character together.
Head: Thinking, learning, and reasoning — encouraging curiosity, problem-solving, and a love of knowledge.
Heart: Emotional awareness, empathy, and values — helping children build compassion and strong connections.
Hands: Doing, building, and practicing real-world skills — from crafting projects to outdoor exploration.
Health: Physical wellness, movement, and nature exposure — fostering resilience, energy, and lifelong vitality.
Habits: Character, discipline, identity, and responsibility — guiding students to form practices that shape who they are becoming.
This five-part approach ensures that every student’s education is balanced, meaningful, and connected to life outside the classroom.
Our Story
Living Education Academy was founded in Eagle Mountain, Utah, with a simple belief: children deserve more than rigid schedules and screen time. Our founder envisioned a place where students could step outside, discover their strengths, and learn through hands-on experiences that last a lifetime.
Starting with small groups of homeschool families, the Academy has grown into a trusted partner for parents who want their children to flourish in ways traditional classrooms often cannot provide.
