Mission Statement
Nimitz Elementary PTA is in Sunnyvale, CA where we support staff and students to educate the whole child by focusing on literacy, joy for life long learning, social-emotional learning, mutual respect for diversity, and active parent involvement. About This Cause
The Nimitz PTA serves the students and staff at our Title 1 school by providing all of the funding for our school wide

art program, allowing students to have access to art classes throughout the school year. We also fund and run during and after school events such as a pumpkin patch for all students, a pumpkin decorating contest, science and math nights, school wide assemblies, movie events for our students, and more. We also build our community by hosting events such as a Harvest Festival, our annual Scholastic Book Fair, Walk-a-thon Fundraiser and Carnival, and our amazing Multicultural Festival where have our diverse community of families to teach us about one of our 35+ nationalities and cultures. All of this "good" is only possible with the support of our wonderful community. We truly appreciate all of the families that are able to volunteer and/or donate to the fundraising efforts of our Walk-a-thon, Direct Donation Campaign, and of course the generous matching of our corporate sponsors through employee donation matching!

Thank you to all of the Nimitz PTA members that helped set up our 2025 Pumpkin Patch over the past few days!

We had an amazing day today! All of our students were able to come into the GLC with their class to select a pumpkin to take home. We heard lots of oohs and ahhs, as well as cheers, as they came into the patch and saw so many smiles and happy students today! This is definitely a well-loved tradition at Nimitz!

We hope to see some of these pumpkins back next Thursday, October 30th for our annual Pumpkin Decorating Contest!

A statement from our California State and National PTA leaders in reaction to the horrific school shooting in Minneapolis. The PTA organization at all levels advocates for school safety and gun violence prevention.

PTA will never relent on our push at all levels and on both sides of the aisle for solutions and policies to eliminate gun violence and save lives. We urge everyone to use our Blueprint for Parent Leaders to Take Action on Gun Violence Prevention to host critical conversations in your school communities around school safety planning and gun violence prevention: PTA.org/SchoolSafety.

Mrs. Benson, our beloved STEAM club teacher, has a Donors Choose project for 3D Printing supplies that is only $125 away from being funded.

Right now, all Donor's Choice donations are currently matched 1.5x, which means that we can complete this project for only $85!

Let's try to fund her project to bring 3D Printing supplies to our Nimitz STEAM lab! Thanks for your help and support!

For those of you that might not have heard, Nimitz was awarded the prestigious 2025 California Distinguished School Award. This is an award that honors some of California's most exemplary and inspiring public schools. Schools selected for the Distinguished School Award demonstrate significant gains in narrowing the achievement gap and have also demonstrated strong overall outcomes for all students. We are very proud of all the work that went into closing the gap and showing just how amazing our community, teachers, intervention staff are.

Please come to join us!
