Hello Maxfield families! My name is Jenny Gruber and I am part of the fifth-grade team here at Maxfield. I have been teaching here at Maxfield since 2009. I have taught many different grades from K-6 in my teaching career, but the upper elementary here at Maxfield has been my favorite. Our classroom community will be a fun, energetic, cooperative place for learning and growth together! Something unique about me is that I am a fraternal twin! My twin sister's name is Kim and I also have a younger brother named Matt. I grew up in St. Paul, recently just purchased a house, and have never lived outside of Minnesota. I look forward to all of the brilliant things our 5th grade scholars will do this year! Feel free to reach out via email or stop by our classroom to see all of the brilliance happening every day!
