The Ballico Cressey School District resides in Merced County along the Merced River. The district houses two school sites: Cressey Elementary and Ballico Elementary. We are a 1:1 school district with each student having their own digital device. The district also offers free internet to all families who do not have internet access at home with Verizon HotSpots. Learning in and out of school is an important aspect of the district's educational philosophy where KIDS COME FIRST. The district is committed to providing high-quality education to a diverse student body. We are achieving goals through a challenging curriculum, quality teachers, and an atmosphere that emphasizes communication and cooperation. Together, these elements create a safe and engaging learning environment in which all students excel.
