I used to be the Youth Pastor at Cross Keys! My oldest son, Joseph, went to Children’s Garden and my youngest will be starting this year!

Alyssa Huver
Hi! I’m Miss Alyssa! My teaching days began at Garaguso Karate in Williamstown where I ran the “Little Ninjas” preschool program. From there, I went on to receive my Bachelor’s in Education from Rowan University. I taught first grade at Whitehall Elementary until I became a mom of three amazing kids. As my youngest heads to school this year at Children’s Garden, I’ll be joining him back in the classroom and I couldn’t be more excited!
I love making memories down the shore with my husband and kiddos and training at the karate school with my family.
