History & Location
Founded in 1855 during California’s Gold Rush, Sonora Elementary School has always been at the heart of our community. From 1909, it was housed in the Historic Dome in Downtown Sonora, a beautiful landmark with striking columns and architectural features that continues to be a treasured reminder of our history. In 1974, the school was moved to its current location.
Today, we are centrally located within the City of Sonora, near shopping and conveniences, with the Tuolumne County Library on one side and the Adventist Health complex on the other. Making the most of our rural atmosphere, our campus is open and spacious, with majestic oak trees and plenty of outdoor areas for the students to enjoy.
Sonora is the county seat for Tuolumne County, which extends from the High Sierra down to the rolling foothills. We are near Yosemite National Park, surrounded by charming historic towns, lakes, mountains, State parks, and National parks. A popular tourist destination, our community has a relaxed family atmosphere that provides a refreshing change of pace from the bigger cities.
