II · About the Academy
A Home, A Schoolhouse, A Farm
Lynch Manor Academy is the home education program of the Lynch family. Founded by David and Kristina Lynch in Pennsylvania, LMA exists to give our children — and the children who follow — a rigorous, faith-rooted education that takes both the classical academic tradition and the real world seriously.
Our classroom is part schoolhouse, part flower farm, part kitchen table. We teach by Pennsylvania Academic Standards, integrate a Christian worldview, and build our own curriculum where the best off-the-shelf options fall short.
