One of our programs of excellence at Sonora High School is our International Baccalaureate Programme. Here is a little why this is program is an example of excellence. Last year 39 of the 40 Diploma candidates received the diploma!! Most in school history. The highest diplomas were Emily Styx and Anya Shah. (both received 41 points)
These are not only the most diplomas awarded in Sonora history- but the average diploma score is among the highest ever as well. The most impressive part is that these students were well-rounded. They were athletes, musicians, dancers, and just normal video gaming teenagers.
Over half of them are also first-generation- and they are heading into college with not only units but skills that will continue to propel them along!
"I am once again impressed by how much kids accomplish when they are supported by loving and dedicated adults. These adults are not only their parents- but all of our Raider Teaching Staff. Thank you for believing in them, and thank you for supporting them." -Shannon Appenrodt
Every subject did well- with many 100 percent pass rates- or one student from that. Congratulations to Marjie Blevins who continues her amazing 100 percent pass rate for almost 33 years!!
