I have been at this school for two years, so far the amount of classes and variety offered is satisfactory, although there isn't a large amount of AP classes, so college credit isn't the easiest to get. The school itself is clean and safe, with good teachers who truly care for their students. It's a good environment to learn in with fairly good opportunities given to all students.

Saugatucks is a very rich snobby school.The only way in which you could fit in in sports and in general is if your parents are rich and are associated with the school alot.

I loved my time at SHS before I graduated in 2017. While it's a small school, it has a heavy fine arts focus, intensive AP classes, and support for those who want to go to college or enter the workforce.
