Haven't had a chance to make your contribution yet? See below for all the details on how to support the COMPASS Fund!

Our COMPASS Fund drive is well underway. The Balboa Spirit Club relies on the thoughtfulness and generosity of our Balboa Family to deliver all of the amazing programs, enrichments, and events that make Balboa such a special place to grow. Please consider giving generously to support the BSC and our scholars.

More info and ways to contribute are available here: https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/donation-form/compass-fund-2026--2027.

Please note, our payment processor, Zeffy, distributes 100% of your donation to the BSC. They do not charge us any base fees or credit card fees. When submitting your form, the site will ask about an optional contribution to Zeffy. This additional payment helps them cover their costs and expenses. It is an optional payment and is not considered tax deductible. Your support is appreciated.

If you prefer to write a check for your contribution, please be sure to make your check out to Balboa Spirit Club and include your scholar's name and classroom in the memo line. Please include a note with your email and contact information too. Donations can be left with the staff in the main office.

Please contact bsccompassfund@gmail.com with any questions. The Balboa Spirit Club is a recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. All eligible donations will receive a tax receipt.

There are many ways to volunteer and help at Balboa. On campus volunteers must be cleared and approved by the district. Please complete a Volunteer Application at https://volunteerapp.lausd.net to get the process started.

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.

Tips and Hints for facilitating a successful Psychomotor session are in the linked file below!
