School Supplies & Start/End Times

The 2022-2023 school year starts on Wednesday, August 31 for Kindergarten students, and on Monday, August 29 for students in grades 1-8. If you're joining TCGIS after the first day of school, the Enrollment Coordinator will work with you to determine what day your child(ren) will start school.

Please view the supply lists for grades K-4 or 5-8 to know what to bring to school on the first day.

Classes start at 8:15 AM, but your child should arrive by 8:10 to have time to get to class. The school day ends at 3:15 on most days, with one early release day each month ending at 12:45. Early release days, as well as other school events, are posted on our calendar.

Please view this video on arrival and dismissal procedures at TCGIS. You can also see the same information in PDF format.
