Before coming to Crystal, Mrs. Gruber worked at a number of jobs. After graduat- ing from Brilliant High School in Brilliant, Alabama, Mrs. Gruber worked as a beautician for a year. Dur- ing World War II Mrs. Gruber served as a WAVE in the U.S. Navy for two years. She was stationed at San Diego and she worked as an aircraft instrument technician. At the age of 27, Mrs. Gruber enrolled in college under the G.l. Bill. She graduated from Arkan- sas State University in 1953. She received her Mas- ter's degree from the University of Missouri, Colum- bia in 1969. Mrs. Gruber has been teaching school ever since college, except for one year as a secretary to the president of a cotton company in Memphis. She taught 9th grade English and typing at Herculanean High School for two years. She then taught at Hillsboro High School for five years. Mrs. Gruber then came to CCHS in 1961. Mrs. Gruber lives in Mapaville with her husband, Bill Gruber. Mrs. Gruber's plans for the future after retiring are to move closer to her son, Bob, his wife Brenda, and their daughter, Ashley Heather. Mrs. Gruber looks forward to seeing her son and his fam- ily more often and enjoying her granddaughter as she grows up. Mrs. Gruber feels there is nothing else she would rather have spent the last 26 years doing than teach- ing. The students at Crystal City High School during the past 19 years have been privileged having Mrs. Pauline Gruber as their teacher. Good Luck, Mrs. Gruber! 4
