Charles H. Aylen Junior High School, or West Junior High School as it was originally named, opened its doors for the first time in November 1962. Dr. Sam Peach was the first principal.
In 1970, the name of the school was changed in honor of Charles H. Aylen, a general practitioner and a 12-year member of the Puyallup School Board.
In September 2008, after a voter approved bond, a new building was constructed and opened to replace the existing building.
In April of 2013, Aylen celebrated the Fiftieth Anniversary of the school with a special celebration.
Aylen's original school colors were Red and White. Black and Silver were added later.
Aylen's mascot is the Falcon.

The original building was remodeled during 1983-1985.

The rebuilt Aylen Junior High School building opened in September 2008.

Aylen has three representatives for the Puyallup School District Diversity Committee:

These representatives are responsible for:

Advising students, parents, and staff that they are there to listen, help, and document incidents of harassment, intimidation, bullying, or discrimination. This information is forwarded to the building administrator, who then takes the appropriate response.
Participating in monthly meetings with the Office of Equity and Achievement.
Meeting regularly with their building administrators to share information.
Having access to information, resources, and materials that may assist their colleagues.
