Proposition C
Saginaw High Athletic Facilities
$47 million
Projects to create equity with Boswell HS and new Eagle Mountain High School projected to open in August 2024. Saginaw High School improvements include an indoor multi-purpose facility, locker room, weight room, training room, and team room additions.
Additional Prop C Project Details
SHS has not been renovated since it was built in 2005.
- The current indoor athletic facility is used by approximately 330 students each day for classes, before/after school practices and rehearsals, and other program activities.
- The bond proposal includes increasing the size of both male and female locker rooms, which will provide more space for changing, hygiene and grooming areas as well as improved sight lines for supervision. The locker rooms are used by student athletes in football, track and field, cross country, soccer, tennis, baseball and softball.
- The team room is an athletic classroom where students and coaches analyze game film, teamwork strategies, and conduct instructional elements of athletic learning of their particular sport(s).
- The training room is used to treat and rehabilitate injured student athletes and meet with parents about their student’s health progress. SHS has three adult athletic trainers to support all school sports. In 2022-2023, SHS trainers provided 4,022 treatments to student athletes, with care including prevention, recognition, assessment, management, treatment and reconditioning of injuries.
- A high school indoor training facility is open to every sport and organization at the school, which allows programs to continue training and rehearsals in situations such as inclement weather. A larger facility at SHS would allow multiple programs to use the space at the same time.
- The SHS turf room is the smallest in size compared to the other district high schools. A new indoor facility would increase the footprint of the current building and would be more equitable with the facilities at Boswell and the new Eagle Mountain HS currently under construction. The current SHS turf room is 10,948 square feet in size. The current Boswell turf room is 42,972 square feet in size (sizes do not include training rooms, locker rooms, weight rooms, or team rooms).
