Ms. Laura Matthews Ms. Matthews at- tended Carson-New- man College and Tennessee State University. She has a B.S. in biology and M.S. in guidance and counsling. Ms. Charlotte McBee Ms. McBee went to Jacksonville Uni- versity where she re- ceived a B.S. and George Peabody where she received a MS. Ms. Linda G. McCulloch The only thing Ms. McCulloch has to say about McGa- vock is that it is “much bigger than the class of 140 I graduated in.” Ms. Kay McFarlin Ms. McFarlin’s hobby is to ‘live life to the fullest.’ She attended University of Florida and has a BAE and MAE. Mr. Bruce Meriwether ‘‘We have be- come so large we’ve forgotton the impor- tance of Pride in what we are and dedication to what we could become.” ‘. ‘ 1@ MRS RO 7] ys hy ye B ¢ TEACHER FEATU NE. Mrs. RObOINSON by Sherry Hessey Mrs. Joyce Robinson, secretary of the East Office, is an interesting person. Mrs. Robinson’s day starts very early by writ- ing tardy notes. She does not seem to let anything bother her. If she is typing and five different people come in she does not get frustrated. She is always willing to talk to anyone. She was born in Nashville and grew up in Donelson. She graduated from Donel- son High School and later attended Bel- mont College. As a child she wanted to be a PE. teacher, but as a secretary in schools she is still able to work with young people, which she enjoys very much. The best thing that ever happened to Mrs. Robinson was getting married. She has been married for 26 years and has two children and one granddaughter which shesis very proud of. Mrs. Robinson has worked as a secre- tary for 14 years. She has been a great benefit to McGavock for eight years. Be- fore coming to McGavock she worked as a secretary at Two Rivers High School. As the telephone rings a hundred times a morning a nd she is right in the middle of doing something important, it seems as though she would become angry at all the confusion which keeps her from finishing her task. Odd as it may seem Mrs. Robin- son answers the phone every time with a friendly, polite, ‘“Hello, East School, May I help you?” She may not look very organized but Mrs. Robinson knows where every scrap of paper is. You would think that as many students as she sees a day she would forget who signed in or out but she knows alot of names. In my opinion there couldn’t be a better secretary! 203
