Staff Profile

I have been working at Highland since 2012 with one year prior to that at Fridley High School and long term subbing throughout the metro. I attended Bemidji State University receiving a B.S. in criminal justice with a minor in chemistry. After years of guiding backcountry trips I realized that teaching was at the core of what I was doing. I went back to school at the University of Minnesota and received my M.Ed. in science education with an emphasis in chemistry. 

I still love to be outdoors and do backcountry trips, but now it is with friends and my own two kids.  I also love to read and garden.  I am also involved with Highland's nordic ski team either coaching or volunteering and the Outdoor Club. 

Something interesting about me is that I was a park ranger at Itasca State Park for one summer.  I lived in the park, which was a very unique and great experience.   

If you have any questions, please email me at alison.noah@spps.org and I will get back to you within 24 hours. If email does not work, you may call after school hours at (651) 744-3870.  Please use Schoology to access all class content.
