The Saginaw Arts and Sciences Academy (SASA) has been expanding and enhancing learning opportunities for gifted/talented students in the Tri-County area since 1981. During its history, initially as the Center for the Arts and Sciences (C.A.S.) and since 1999 as the Saginaw Arts & Sciences Academy, it has earned a national reputation for excellence.
SASA students have repeatedly performed well in standardized tests, art, sciences, math, vocal music, dance, writing and much more. SASA typically has a handful of students represented at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair every year, and the school has produced two grand award winners, as well as dozens of students who have placed at ISEF. In the 2001 Tests of Engineering Aptitude, Mathematics, & Science (TEAMS) engineering competition, SASA's team scored highest nationally.
