Ann Rennie | Preschool Director

First Year at ACA: 2016

Ann was raised in Cincinnati, Ohio and attended the United States Naval Academy, where she earned a B.S. in Oceanography. She served 21 years on active duty in the Navy. During her time in the Navy, she completed a M.S. in Management at University of Colorado at Denver. After completing her Navy career, she spent several years as a stay-at-home mom and enjoyed volunteering at church, school, and in the community.

When Ann's youngest daughter was heading to kindergarten, ACA was looking for a preschool teacher. She was excited about the opportunity to reinvent herself in the wonderful world of early childhood education. She is grateful to teach in a school where parents are valued, Christ is honored, and children steep daily in God's truth, beauty and goodness. Ann served as an early childhood teacher for six years and then expanded her role to serve as the Preschool Director beginning in 2022.

Ann and her husband, Chris, were married in 2000. They have three daughters: Gillian (2023 graduate of ACA), Megan, and Frances. Ann loves to read, especially classics and children’s literature. She also likes hiking, cooking, and crafty things. As a family, the Rennies enjoy skiing, camping, road trips, music, theater, and games.

"You may speak but a word to a child, and in that child there may be slumbering a noble heart which shall stir the Christian Church in years to come." - Charles Spurgeon
