Bonita Vista Middle School Principal, Teresa Kramer, has responded to reports of an illegal “fight club” being conducted by students in and around the school.
Shocked parents learned about the fights and the students involved who then upload the brutal fight videos to a secret Instagram account in an effort to “seek internet fame,” reports 10news.

Neighbors said they had witnessed dozens of kids running down the trail on minimum-day Fridays, to participate in organized fights at Discovery Park.
Thank you to the many people who brought to my attention a social media post from yesterday concerning fights that occur after school at Discovery Park. In that post, a concerned community member explained that many of our students leave school and head to the park to watch, film, or participate in fights at the park, where there is no supervision. This presents a safety concern for our kids.
I can’t speak to the accuracy of this post, but it definitely raises concerns. I am working with the district office and Chula Vista Police Department to address the issue. Please speak to your kids and discourage them from participating in any activity that puts them or their classmates in danger. This activity creates a negative picture of BVM and has the potential to influence the reputation of our students, parents, school, and community.
Let’s work together to ensure the safety of our students. And thank you again for your communication. Have a safe and enjoyable spring break.
The school is located at 650 Otay Lakes Rd, Chula Vista, CA 91910.
