Summary

Saginaw High School is a public high school located in Saginaw, Texas, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 2,202 students. It is part of the Eagle Mt-Saginaw Independent School District, which is ranked 609 out of 961 districts in Texas and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Over the past few years, Saginaw High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 462 out of 1,857 Texas high schools in 2018-2019 to 1,026 out of 1,974 in 2024-2025. Its SchoolDigger rating has also decreased from 4 stars in 2014-2018 to 2 stars in 2024-2025. The school performs relatively better for its White, Multi-racial, and English Language Learner student groups, ranking in the top 50% of Texas high schools, but struggles with its Asian, African American, and Gifted and Talented student groups, ranking in the bottom 25%. Saginaw High School's performance on STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) exams is generally below the district and state averages, with the exception of English II Reading and U.S. History.

Compared to nearby schools, Saginaw High School's performance is generally lower than Chisholm Trail High School and Boswell High School, which are also part of the Eagle Mt-Saginaw ISD. However, Saginaw High School outperforms Elmer C. Watson High School and the schools in the Fort Worth ISD, such as Marine Creek Collegiate High School and Diamond Hill-Jarvis High School. The school's relatively high proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, as indicated by the percentage of free and reduced-lunch recipients, may be a contributing factor to the academic challenges the school faces.
