Dave & Buster's Night
Thanks to all the Balboa Families who came out to Dave & Busters to support the BSC and enjoy some food and games as a community. It was wonderful to watch our scholars run off with their friends and have fun together.
Halloween Parade Parking
Parking during the Halloween Parade can be frightening. Make the morning a little less scary by reserving a spot in the parking lot of our neighbors, the Congregational Church of Northridge. Reserve your spot for the Halloween Parade and support Balboa students at the same time. 🎃 Parking donations help fund enrichment programs like PE, music, gardening, and science that keep our children curious, active, and engaged.

All volunteers, new and returning, must complete an application each year (for each school). Please contact our Community Representative, Ms. Julie Shon, at julie.shon@lausd.net, should you need any assistance.
Thank you for supporting our school!
THANK YOU to all of the parent volunteers that have already helped during our first week of Psychomotor. Please continue to signup as the mornings cool down and the activities heat up.
Scholars participate in weekly Psychomotor activities, focused on following rules, teamwork, and good sportsmanship. Parent Volunteers are needed to facilitate these sessions. Please signup to help out your classroom (and others!). Please signup here.
