Saugus is a neighborhood in Santa Clarita, California. It was one of four communities (with Valencia, Newhall and Canyon Country) that merged in 1987 to create the city of Santa Clarita. Saugus is named after Saugus, Massachusetts, the hometown of Henry Newhall, upon whose land the town was originally built.
History
Saugus was first named Newhall by Henry Mayo Newhall, who bought the eastern half of the Del Valle family's Rancho San Francisco from a series of speculators. After he moved the town south in 1879, he renamed the original site for his birthplace, Saugus, Massachusetts.
The Saugus Cafe was established in 1886 on San Fernando Road (now Railroad Avenue). It is the oldest continuously operating restaurant in Los Angeles County.
In 1987, the city of Santa Clarita was incorporated, encompassing Saugus and the neighboring communities of Canyon Country, Newhall, and part of Valencia.
On November 14, 2019, a mass shooting took place at Saugus High School. A 16-year-old student, Nathaniel Berhow, shot and killed two other students in the school's quad and injured three others. He then shot himself in the head and succumbed to his injuries the following day.
Education
Elementary school students in Saugus attend schools in Saugus Union School District. Middle and high school students attend Arroyo Seco Junior High School and Saugus High School, both part of the William S. Hart Union High School District.
