Welcome to the High School portion of Groveton ISD's Counselor Corner! I am Krystle Page and I am the High School Counselor for Groveton ISD. This is my ninth year at Groveton ISD (I've taught at both the high school and elementary campuses), and my second year as a counselor. I am very blessed to call Groveton home and raise my children as Groveton Indians.
As the school counselor, I work with students, teachers, and parents to ensure that all of our students are socially and academically successful. I periodically send out newsletters (which are posted below) to students and you are welcome to subscribe to them as well. Communication is very important as we work together to help our students succeed. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at kpage@grovetonisd.net or 936-642-1473 ext 8119.
This newsletter has information about ASVAB, SAT, ACT, and TSIA 2.0 testing as well as general college application tips. It also includes information about Kuder Navigator which is used to help students explore college and career options.

FAFSA
Beginning with the 2021-2022 school year, the State of Texas requires all students to either complete FAFSA or TAFSA, OR complete a waiver in order to graduate high school. The 2023-2024 FAFSA & TAFSA applications will be available beginning October 1, 2022.
Seniors have access to a Google Classroom specifically for Scholarships that I update weekly as scholarships are found or become available for the appropriate year.
Going Merry is a free tool students can utilize to help them complete FAFSA and/or search for many scholarships.

You are staying in a home that is not yours or your parent's (or legal guardian's) because you had to leave your home
You are in an unstable living situation, without a safe or steady home
