GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Sonoraville High School has been amazing for my four year high school career. I hadn't had a single problem up until two years ago when the administration disbanded the JROTC program. The only thing I would change is the administration because they treat their seniors like trash and make us cough up thousands of dollars without warning.
