Saginaw United High School is a high school in Saginaw, Michigan.

Contents

Upon opening in 2024, it absorbed the student bodies of the former Arthur Hill High School and Saginaw High School (both of which would be repurposed).

History

Due to declining enrollment of the nearby Arthur Hill High School and Saginaw High School, a proposal was brought forth in 2020 to consolidate the student bodies of both in one newer, more modern building. [1] This plan was approved, and ground was broken on the new school in 2022. [2] Construction of the $85 million building was finished in 2024, after which the school began accepting students for its inaugural 2024-25 school year.[ citation needed ]

School building

The five-floor building encompasses a total of 212,000 square feet. [3] Each floor of the school is dedicated to a grade level, with one floor remaining for general school facilities. [4]
