Dr. Kirsten L. Stein
Hello! My name is Dr. Kirsten Stein, founder of Athena’s Homeschool Academy (AHA). AHA families know me as Dr. Kirsten. AHA is a place to help parents like you educate their homeschooled children and help spark eureka moments in kids like yours!
AHA began because my children needed help along the way. My children were not being challenged in their schooling environment. I felt desperate and didn’t know where to turn. I needed to cultivate my children’s love of learning and create a community of kids who could relate to them. I began homeschooling my kids and created Athena’s Advanced Academy, Inc., AHA’s parent company. I remember being very overwhelmed when I began homeschooling and wanted to give my children the opportunity to learn from others.
As you know, there are challenges with homeschooling kids. Educating my children was no exception. I started homeschooling when my children were not being challenged in their schooling environment. I remember being very overwhelmed when I began homeschooling and wanted to give my children the opportunity to learn from others.
I created Athena’s Advanced Academy, Inc., AHA’s parent company, and then AHA to help my children and others like them–to cultivate their love of learning and create a community of kids who could relate to each other, homeschooled children like yours.

Amazing families over many years have sent heartfelt messages about the help and support their students have received from Athena’s along their educational journey. I would like to share (with permission) one such message. I am certain you will find it as touching as I do.
