Mr. Alex Olson

Mr. Olson will be returning for his second year at ICS teaching 8th grade English Language Arts.  He is looking forward to another fun and challenging year, especially getting to know his students and helping them on their journey to success in their final year at ICS and beyond.  He was born and raised in San Diego and majored in English Literature at UC Santa Cruz before earning his single subject credential at San Diego State.  He is also currently earning his Master of Arts in Teaching once again at San Diego State.  In his free time, Mr. Olson enjoys spending time with his lovely wife Shawnee, dog Rusty, and cat Craven and is eagerly awaiting the birth of his first child this year.  Hobbies include cooking, reading, traveling, and fantasy football.
