Ballinger High School has been such a great school to attend for the last 4 years. I have been given to opportunity to become a young adult and play the sports I enjoy while learning the academics I needed to pursue my career.

The best thing about this school is that its small and everybody know each other, but, thats also the bad thing about it. You can be involved in almost everything and you can also get a lot of one on one help from teachers. Another thing I love about this school is because our motto is "The Tradition Lives On" tradition, tradition, tradition. Its great. When someone reachers out for help the whole community is there lending a hand. We are one community.
