My daughter is current;y in the 2nd grade at Nimitz and has shown tremendous progress in all areas of her studies. The teachers, principal and staff at Nimitz are caring and very accomodating. I and my daughter love Nimitz!

This school has a great 'no stress' environment and wonderful caring staff however the education level is low and the school community changes frequently because part of it made of English Learners students (ELD) that leave to their home schools as soon as they master the language and out of the ELD program. I agree with one of the other parent writing that this school does not prepare the students for the district's high level of education and middle school's demands.

I'm very impressed with Nimitz, and am grateful my son goes to school there. Dale Jones, the principal is very involved throughout the school, and all the teachers & staff make you feel right at home.The environment here reminds me of when I was in elementary, back in 'the good ole days' when I woke up looking forward to going to school. Thank you for making learning fun!

Nimitz is a good school. There are music, art, and sports programs available and it is very diverse there. The staff is wonderful and they have a principal like no other. However, 5th graders aren't prepared to go into middle school after attending a school such as Nimitz. My child was laid back in 5th grade, and the teachers never showed him how difficult middle school was. Therefore, he went from 4's and 5's in Elementary school to C's and D's in middle school. Instead, we had to monitor him into getting back on track, instead of his 5th grade teacher preparing him.
