Is it getting better · CAASPP 2019 to 2025

Has held the 87th-percentile line every tested year since 2019.

Most rating sites would stop at “65% proficient” and call it done. Saugus deserves a closer read. It sits at the 87th percentile of 1,647 California high schools — but the ranking is the least interesting thing on this page.

Saugus's low-income kids hit 73.0% proficiency in ELA — a number the same group reaches at 38.2% statewide. If you're trying to read past zip-code-driven test scores, that's the signal worth weighing.

Saugus High scores 69 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 87th percentile of 1,647 California high schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).

This school hasn't fully recovered from the pandemic: 65% meet the standard today, versus 76% in 2019 — a gap worth asking about on a visit.

Worth knowing

At 2,317 students, this school is well above the typical California high school (≈1450).

On the state's science test (CAST), 64% met or exceeded the standard — science is tested in grades 5 and 8 and once in high school, and it never enters the Scope Score.

What should I do next?

Worth a school visit

Ask how the school challenges kids who clear the standard early. The gap between meeting and exceeding is where pacing shows.

  • Ask whether extra support — tutoring, counseling, small groups — reaches kids across income lines, not just the students already ahead.
  • Ask whether the tour can step into a working classroom — watch how the teacher handles a student who's stuck.
  • Ask to tour while school's in session, and notice how hallways and transitions feel — culture shows up between classes, not just in them.
  • Ask how the school communicates with families when a child starts to struggle.
  • Ask what a typical day looks like for a new student in the first few weeks.
Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is Saugus High a good high school?
Saugus High has a Scope Score of 69 out of 100, placing it in the 87th percentile of California high schools and ranked #216 statewide. 33.1% of students exceeded the state standard on the 2025 CAASPP assessment, which is 13.3 percentage points above the California average of 19.8%. The Scope Score weights 7 dimensions for high schools: graduation rate (25%), exceeded standard (22%), college/career readiness (20%), met or exceeded (proficient) (18%), chronic absenteeism (5%), suspension rate (5%), and ELPAC English Learner proficiency (5%). Data source: California Department of Education CAASPP 2025, analyzed by SchoolScope.
What are Saugus High's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 65.2% of students at Saugus High met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 33.1% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 32.1% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 33.1% went beyond it. Most rating sites report only the combined "proficient" number. SchoolScope surfaces the exceeded-vs-met split because it shows how many students go beyond the standard rather than only meeting it. 1,137 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Saugus High rank in California?
Saugus High ranks #216 among California high schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 87th percentile. This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), chronic absenteeism, and suspension rate. Unlike single-number ratings, the Scope Score shows what drives the ranking so parents can decide what matters most to their family. See full methodology.
What is the attendance and school culture like at Saugus High?
14.5% of students at Saugus High are chronically absent (missing 10% or more of school days), which is better than the California average of 23.1%. The suspension rate is 1.8%, indicating a low-discipline-incident environment. SchoolScope includes these culture metrics in the Scope Score because they reflect day-to-day school experience in ways test scores alone cannot.
How does Saugus High compare to other schools in Saugus?
Saugus High scores 69/100 (87th percentile) among California high schools. To compare with nearby schools, SchoolScope shows the same metrics side by side: exceeded rate, proficiency, growth trajectory, and school culture indicators. The school serves 2,317 students. Use the schools in Saugus page or the map view to compare all high schools nearby.
How does Saugus High serve low-income and underrepresented students?
At Saugus High in Saugus, 73.0% of low-income students met or exceeded the ELA standard in 2025, compared to 55.4% district-wide and 38.2% statewide. Saugus High outperforms its district average for low-income students by 17.6 percentage points in ELA. Other subgroups: Low-Income students (37.5% Math proficient); White students (86.2% ELA proficient). The largest proficiency gap is 40.8 percentage points for disabilities students. Data source: California Department of Education, CAASPP 2024-25. 126 students tested. SchoolScope shows disaggregated test scores by demographic subgroup so you can see how a school performs for your child's specific group — not just the school-wide average. Subgroup data is context, not part of the Scope Score: we don't penalize schools for who they serve. See our equity approach.
What AP courses are offered at Saugus High?
Saugus High's teachers are authorized to teach 25 of the 40 AP subjects the College Board offers, per the 2025 - 2026 AP Course Audit: 2-D Art and Design, 3-D Art and Design, Art History, Biology, Calculus AB, Calculus BC, Chemistry, Chinese Language and Culture, Computer Science A, Computer Science Principles, Drawing, English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, Environmental Science, European History, French Language and Culture, Physics 1, Physics 2, Precalculus, Psychology, Spanish Language and Culture, Statistics, U.S. Government and Politics, United States History, World History: Modern. Authorization means the school may teach a course, not that a section is running this year, and it's separate from AP exam pass rates.
