SHS has made many enhancements to its Academic Programs along with Sport program. SHS has done a great job communicating with students and parents.

The best parts of Saugus would have to be the teachers. They're always here for you when you need something and some of their education methods are really amazing.

3.0 Junior

5/15/2024

My best experience in this school was being able to connect with people and friends. Unfortunately this school has many issues, such as unqualified teachers, no variety regarding classes or clubs, no school activities or field trips, and no dual enrollment programs or even honors classes for some subjects.

I love most of my teachers and they deserve a better work environment. This school system as a whole is disastrous and most students are not successful in their future
