While it's not as big of an issue on Logos, if you're trying to learn Greek to study the Bible, you'll want to look for resources that say "Koine Greek" or "Biblical Greek" rather than "Ancient Greek". The latter typically refers to an earlier form of Greek used by Plato, Homer, etc. You'd be able to follow what it says, but run into a lot of linguistic differences.
There are (at least) three kinds of Greek: Ancient (Attic) Greek, Koine (Biblical) Greek, and Modern Greek. They are different. In the same way that Middle English can be deciphered by a modern English speaker, you can read Attic Greek, but it is (surprisingly) a more complex language than Koine Greek.
If you really meant 'ancient,' no, there are no tools in Logos to learn it, but there are quite a few resources (books) written in it in the big, free Gk download for which I've forgotten the name.
If you mean Koine Greek, there are tons and tons of tools, books, etc. If this is what you are after, I recommend starting with Danny Zacharias' book as it meshes with Logos very well…designed to do so from the ground up.

Surprisingly, Logos has quite a few resources in my library, on Attic … learning Homeric greek, two grammars, a lexicon (Homeric), inscriptions, even a reading course in Homeric …. AND that crazily important … how to calculate Hercules height!
But 'nearly all' as koine, true. I now image koine as Macedonian greek. One of the lessons in my recent reading on greek, is that it's naive to propose 'koine greek' … more accurately which version of koine greek, throughout the empire.

@DMB I'd love to see the list…my search turned up nothing other than the public domain works I cited above.

I just typed in 'Attic'. In my tagging 'PRS' is Perseus sourced; the rest purchased over the years. The English-Greek Dictionary is more accurately a lexicon and quite good. The greek grammar for colleges is a detailed look at classical greek (Attic per the author).
OK .. I expanded a little to 'classical greek' in the title:

Yes, there are some may be a little dated:
(1) A school Grammar of Attic Greek:
(2) English–Greek Dictionary: A Vocabulary of the Attic Language
(3) Homeric Greek: A Book for Beginners
(4) A Greek Grammar for Colleges
(5) Homeric Grammar
(6) Introduction to the Study of the Greek Dialects: Grammar Selected Inscriptions Glossary
(7) Greek Classics Research Library (110 vols. plus Perseus Greek Classics)
And, the most modern of the bunch:
(8) From Alpha to Omega: A Beginning Course in Classical Greek (1995 / 2013)

There are lots of resources for Attic and Homer and I use them a bunch especially with multiple book displays, but the synchronization is often wonky. Perseus is a huge plus. I enjoy an embarrassing number of Loebs. In addition to @BKMitchell's list, there's Gildersleeve's Syntax of Classical Greek: From Homer to Demosthenes.
But nobody knows if the OP really cares. I'll bet there was interest in Koine. 😊
Nearly all Logos tools are geared towards Koine Greek.
