She has been living in Somonauk since the seventh grade with her parents, her brother Noah, and her four sisters—Starla, Shay, Mia, and Simone. During her time in school, she participates in volleyball, cheer, and soccer. Ali believes the best thing about Somonauk is that there's always an opportunity to get involved and try something new.

Somonauk High School is proud to announce that 7 SHS students have been formally recognized as AP Scholars. The College Board annually recognizes students that have passed three or more Advanced Placement Exams during their high school career, earning early college credit as high school students. The following members of the Class of 2025 were recognized as AP Scholars: Joseph Freeman, Aiden Hopkins, Layla Hufstedler and Aldo Resendez. We also had 3 members of the Class of 2026 that have already earned the honor of AP Scholar, they are: Madelyn Hernandez, Morgan Morris, and Ava Warner.

Somonauk High School had a record number of students take Advanced Placement classes and exams during the 2024-2025 school year, with 70 total students testing. Of those 70 test takers, we had a 69% pass rate, that is 48 classes that would save our families between $229-$2,600 per course. That is an overall total savings of $10,992 (Students attending WCC)-$124,800 (Students attending Aurora University). That is incredible Bobcats!!! We are BOBCATS!
