I love this school it's great has a good schedule and if you get honor roll for the first 3 quarters you get to go to six flags

The amount of physical fighting each week at Balboa Middle School is staggering. My child was witness to several physical altercations, students vaping IN CLASS, restrooms, and drug use. UNBELIEVABLE.
