All schools in Garland used computers to store and record information. This year the school district switched from the computer at Region 10 to its own system. Although a small change, the new system caused considerable turmoil among students the first week of school.

As the first week of school ended and the pace of those dreaded memos slowed, both students and faculty looked forward to the three day weekend that awaited them. Inside the front door lies the 13,794 square tiles that form the shape of the mascot, Yosemite Sam. The mascot was voted on by prospective NG students and was designed after the Texas Tech Raider.
