If you’re reading this you’ve found your way to Nixon’s own website. I encourage you to browse around and get acquainted with what’s available.

Here’s some highlights:

• Information: an online copy of the school handbook.
• Traffic & Transportation: everything about drop off and pick up.
• Staff Directory: a complete staff list including links to send email or view teachers’ classroom pages.
• Calendar: the school calendar.
• Nixon News: an electronic copy of the Nixon News.
• PTA: information about the PTA including officers and meeting schedule.
• eScrip: information about the various Scrip programs.
• Site Council: site council members and information.
• PAUSD: a link to the district website.

A note about what you won’t see online. We do not publish any children’s names or photos. When they contribute to the Nixon News we use their initials only. We will also not put your phone number on-line unless you specifically request it. Nixon News flyers also generally are not published on-line. So be sure to check your hardcopy Nixon News for more information.

PAUSD Parent Education Opportunities is a calendar of all the Parent Education Events in Palo Alto. (Note: This is an external website with no link to return to Nixon).

The computer lab page is your child’s main link from Nixon to the internet. This is a great place to learn about what your kids are learning.
