The Balanga City Schools Division Office participate the 2nd Quarter Simultaneous Earthquake Drill held on June 20, 2019 at exactly 2PM. The event was started by sounding the compound buzzer several times, to signal the start of the earthquake drill. Everybody on their respective offices do the duck, cover and hold themselves under the table. After a few minutes, employees started evacuating towards the designated area, then all evacuation team leaders did a headcount to make sure that all the employees are safe. Then one of the employees represents as a victim to be rescued by the rescue team.
