WELCOME | Welcome

Welcome to Nimitz PTA

Home of the Dolphins!

Whether you are new to our school community or returning, we welcome you to Nimitz Elementary!

Our PTA mission is to positively impact the lives of all children and families.

You can get involved by donating, becoming a member, volunteering, or all three!

What exactly does PTA do?

PTA provides Nimitz with:

Art instructor for all grades TK-5th
Help funding Recess 101 for all students
School assembly enrichment performances from professional artists
Contributions to Science Camp and other field trips
Subscriptions to classroom news publications
Reimbursements for classroom purchases
A budget for Library book and supply purchases
Community-building events such as Harvest Festival, Multicultural Festival, Walk-a-thon Carnival, Pumpkin Patch, Family Science Night, After School Care and Movie, among others.
And more....

The Nimitz PTA works tirelessly to raise funds that support essential programs no longer funded by the State of California or the District. Without your support, we cannot continue to offer these valuable and enriching experiences at the current level for our students and school community.

We kindly suggest a donation of $300 for the first student and $100 for each additional student, but any amount is greatly appreciated. Our goal is 100% participation in the Direct Donation Fundraiser—every contribution counts!

Upcoming Events

Scholastic Book Fair

Get ready to spark a lifelong love of reading! Our Book Fair runs from February 2nd – 6th, bringing the newest bestsellers and beloved classics right to our school. Every purchase supports our school library and helps put more books into the hands of our students.

We’re looking for a number of volunteers to help run the Book Fair. If you are interested in helping (jobs include running the cash register, helping with our family events, helping kids find books, and more), you can sign up at https://www.signupgenius.com/go/5080D49ACA922A57-61549271-fall or use the printed sign up sheet in the office. Volunteers during school hours must complete the CUSD volunteer requirements (https://www.cusdk8.org/volunteering). Volunteers for the morning, after school, or evening shopping events do not need volunteer clearance.

For more information or to see the schedule for the week, please visit the blog post.
