2014-2018 TGS Student Demographics (Race and Ethnicity)
(CDE Data Quest – Accessed 9/10/2018)
Student Sub-Groups
Sub-groups have stayed consistent at TGS over the past five years. The most fluctuation is in the
socioeconomically disadvantaged group. This may be attributed to accepting more ninth grade
students and giving a high priority to students who live in the attendance area of the local
elementary school (Mission Elementary).

Attendance
School year, academic calendar, number of school days, and instructional minutes
The school year begins one or two weeks before Labor Day depending on when winter and
spring break are scheduled. There are three longer breaks in the school year: Fall, Winter, and
Spring. Fall break occurs the third week of November, Winter Break is usually the last week of
December and the first week of January, and Spring Break is usually the third week of March.
TGS uses trimesters for its academic calendar to allow for flexibility for its enrichment classes
and arts and physical education and health class rotation for 7th and 8th graders.
