ALex Crethers
Assistant Teacher

Alex has worked with children of all ages for almost 10 years. A passionate advocate for early childhood education, she's eager to teach your child and love them as her own.

Alexandria moved to the Historic Southside neighborhood where Fortress is located during high school, and had friends whose younger siblings attended Fortress. Now a mother of four, Alexandria’s house is never boring. Her two youngest children now attend Fortress as well; it's funny how life takes you full circle. This organization is everything Alexandria believes in, and more!

When she’s not teaching and caring for children at Fortress, she loves seeing new movies and binge watching shows. She also enjoys video games, swimming, and reading. Her favorite book is Tuck Everlasting because it reminds her to love and live life to the fullest no matter what.
