I've had a great High School experience and Ballard High School. I run Track and Cross-Country and the level of support has been great. There's always activities at the school and plenty of clubs or sports to be involved in.
3/24/2024
Ballard High School is a great school with a wide array of classes you can take from engineering to video production. The teachers are friendly and knowledgeable and the students are friendly. There is a strong school spirit here, which can be seen in the several sports Ballard provides. This is not the most diverse school but that is due to the demographic of the neighborhood. Overall a great school that has everything you would want to be prepared for college and life after.

Ballard High School is a great place to find YOUR place. I found my family within the soccer team. They became some of my closest friends to this day, since sophomore year. The Pep Assemblies put on by ASB are also some of my favorite activities at Ballard, along with the football games. I do think that sometimes more student voice should be heard by faculty, I think more change would come if this was true.

We have had an excellent experience with our daughter at Ballard HS. They have a great selection of AP courses and multiple clubs, not to mention their outstanding band and athletic program. All teachers I have interacted with have been professional and caring about their student’s achievements.
2/8/2021
I had a pretty good experience here after transferring from another school. The building itself could really use an extra wing, though. Most of the hallways and staircases are so narrow and they get extremely packed when kids get out of class, to the point that I genuinely believe there would be cau...
