Sonora is a really good school with a lot of passionate teachers and interesting programs. The downfall of the school is really the administrators. They make huge changes every year and no one is even adjusted to the changes from the previous year so it gets really hectic. They also treat their teachers bad and there seems to be a real lack of communication between them. Overall a good school.
