9/10/2025- Updates and Reminders

Parent Teacher Conference Reminders

• Conference Times and Classrooms- Please make sure you are aware of your conference date and time from your child’s respective teacher. Our front office may not be aware of your respective date and time, but can direct you to the appropriate location if you do not know where your child’s classroom is located. 

• Conference Day Etiquette- Please know that our teachers will be conducting their conferences on a very tight schedule. Delays could happen, so please be courteous to the meetings that are happening before yours. 

• Other Events on Campus during PTCs

  • Student Council Book Fair- Our Student Council Book Fair will be open for most of the day during Parent Teacher Conferences. See details below in the Book Fair section. 

  • PTO Penny Wars- Our PTO will be hosting a Penny Wars competition between grade levels, and their jars will be posted near the book fair this Thursday and Friday. See their flier below for details. 

  • Swag Sale 9/12 (8:00am to 11:30am)- If you still haven’t bought your school swag from our PTO, you can purchase school shirts and other “swag” at this time near the Book Fair as well. 

Update on Catlin Bus Issues- After elevating bus concerns to higher leadership, we have been informed that the Catlin morning bus should be working in a more timely manner starting Monday 9/15. The changes made have resulted in a modified schedule. With this new schedule, delays (if they occur) should be no longer than 10 minutes. 

IMPORTANT Federal Impact Aid Survey Cards SY25-26- This week, you should have received a flier from The Federal Impact Aid Program. The Federal Impact Aid Program is designed to assist school districts who have lost revenue due to federal properties’ exemption from local property taxes. The amount of federal money received is determined by calculating the concentration of students who reside on military bases, low-rent housing properties, and other federal properties, have parents in the uniformed services, or have parents employed on eligible federal properties. Filling out and returning this form will help Nimitz Elementary and schools like us offset costs for school materials and resources, substitute teachers, student transportation, and other services at schools statewide. Your support is crucial to securing this vital funding.

NES Student Council’s Scholastic Book Fair- NES parents and guardians are invited to come and shop the book fair at the NES cafeteria during Parent-Teacher Conferences on Thursday, September 11 8:00 am - 2:00 pm (closed for lunch from 11:45 am- 12:30 am) and Friday, September 12 8:00 am - 11:30 am. Ewallet and online shopping information can be found on our book fair website: https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/nimitzelementaryschool1
