GROOM SCHOOL

GROOM SCHOOL is a public school that is part of the GROOM ISD school district, located in GROOM, TX with about 158 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 12th Grade. With about 17 teachers, GROOM SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 9:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Groom Independent School District (ISD), located in the Texas Panhandle, serves the small community of Groom. As a rural district, it functions as a central hub for local families, prioritizing a close-knit environment where students benefit from smaller class sizes and personalized attention from faculty and staff. The district is committed to providing a well-rounded education that prepares students for both higher education and the workforce, maintaining strong traditions that are typical of small-town Texas athletics and academics.

Beyond its core curriculum, Groom ISD emphasizes community involvement and the development of the "whole student" through extracurricular activities. By leveraging its website and local resources, the district keeps parents and the community engaged in school operations and student achievements. The school reflects the resilient spirit of the Panhandle region, striving to maintain high educational standards despite the challenges often associated with serving a geographically isolated and small student population.
