 High School: Counselor's Corner 

The Guidance and Counseling Program is an integral part of the total educational program at the Saginaw Arts and Sciences Academy. It reflects the school district’s commitment to providing a comprehensive guidance and counseling program for all students. It is developmentally appropriate for students and provides sequential activities to help them transition from pre-adolescence into young adulthood.

For those students attending a half-day program at the Saginaw Arts and Sciences Academy, the program offers liaison services among the home school administration, counselors, teachers and parents and our school.

SASA Named Silver Medalist School in U.S.News and World Report for Second Year in a Row
In December 2009, the Saginaw Arts and Sciences Academy was again named among the top 2.2% high schools in the nation, and this year was the sole recognized high school in Saginaw County in the 2009 “U.S. News and World Report Top U.S. High Schools” ranking report.

In all, twenty high schools in Michigan were recognized with silver or gold medal standings.

The ranking, which began in 2007, is released annually to recognize the achievements of American High Schools that achieve highly in preparing significant number of seniors well for college readiness, as evidenced by quality performance on Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate exams. The index also measures school performance in achievement for minority and economically disadvantaged students at a rate comparable to white and higher income students. SASA was elevated from a bronze medal winner in 2008 to silver medal and remains as a silver medalist winner this year due to continuing progress in the areas mentioned above.

Congratualtions to SASA's students, faculty and parents for making SASA a standout program in all of Mid-Michigan!
