The school was established in 1865 as East Side High School.[5] Alice Freeman Palmer, who later became President of Wellesley College, was principal of the school from 1877 to 1879. In early 2014, there was some debate about closing the school. Many people disliked the idea and instead offered an 8th through 12th grade starting fall of 2014.[6] In the fall of 2024, Saginaw High is scheduled to be closed as a high school, and turned into a middle school for the students on the east side Saginaw. Saginaw High's in city rival school, Arthur Hill will also close and the two schools will get combined for one new school. Declining enrollment and curriculum opportunity are stated as the reasons.
Saginaw High School is recognized by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools as an accredited public high school.[7]
