Thornton Homecoming is planned for June 18th and 19th. They will be having a great time in Thornton, with a CPRA and youth events rodeo each night and dancing under the stars on Saturday night, with Jonna Mae opening for Randy Brown. The parade and pie contest will be on Saturday, with the ex-students meeting at 1 p.m.
Groesbeck ISD works hard to make sure that students’ needs are put first, and sometimes that compassion for a child can have an even greater effect on a parent. When Krisol Solis brought her daughter Adela to Groesbeck ISD as a Pre-K student in 2013, neither of them could speak English and the future seemed uncertain.

Salutatorian Address
So proud of our group of Senior Citizens. Nineteen of our group attended the Hamburger Feast in Groesbeck at the center there, in honor of Senior Citizens in our area. Ladies from Texas Home Health were so nice to come and help out with getting the hamburgers together and assisting in all ways, even trying to keep the flies from trying to take our burgers away. Thanks Ladies. Was glad another of our Directors, Carolyn Anderson, came and joined us as well as myself being a director on the board for our country.
