Mrs. Jada Durden

Welcome to SPARK Academy at Cowart!

My name is Jada Durden and I am so excited about being your child's 2nd grade teacher this year! We have so many great units planned and I cannot wait for all of the learning and fun to begin!

I graduated from The University of Alabama with a degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education. This will be my 12th year teaching. I taught Kindergarten for 5 years and first grade for 3 years. This will be my 4th year with my awesome second grade team. We are going to have a fantastic school year!

My husband, Caleb, is the Captain Investigator with the Limestone County Sheriff's Department. I have 3 children. Gunner is in third grade and Greta is in Kindergarten. Gracee is 4 months old. :-)

When not at school, I love to read and go fishing with my family. I love Alabama football and going to the beach.

Please reach out if you need anything. We are going to have a wonderful year together.
