Groom School

Groom School is a small-town gem sitting right off I-40 in the Texas Panhandle, where the wide-open sky and tight-knit community create the kind of environment where kids genuinely don't fall through the cracks. Science scores in particular stand out, landing in the 90th percentile statewide — impressive for a rural district where teachers tend to know every student by name. Families drawn to a slower pace of life, strong community roots, and a school where your child is a person rather than a number will find a lot to love here.
