Hello! My name is Ms. Alden and I use she/they pronouns. I teach 8th grade English and Journalism here at JAMS. I graduated from Western Washington University with a Bachelor’s in English Literature and a Master’s in Teaching. My passions include my dog Oliver, finding diverse books for my classroom, and discussing critical literacy. Please feel free to contact me for questions about your student and our classroom!

This is my 7th year teaching ELA at JAMS and my 3rd year teaching Journalism. For all newspaper and yearbook inquiries, please email me at kaalden@seattleschools.org.
