Every month one student from each class is recognized for being a true Eagle, who exemplifies the NIMITZ WAY, which is to have pride by doing his/her best, showing respect, being safe, and smiling. Each student’s picture, grade, and class number is put on the wall fronting the hallway to the administration building. The Principal presents a certificate and two restaurant coupons (from community members) to the Eagle in each classroom and reminds the students to strive to become an Eagle. The school counselors supervise an Eagle luncheon each month in acknowledgement of the Eagles’ hard work.

Nimitz Elementary students participate in volleyball and basketball tournaments, track meet, and speech and music festivals.
