Dear Parents
Welcome to Cameron Elementary School where "It's Elementary." Our Primary goal is to work as a partner with you to provide your child with a strong educational foundation to meet the challenges he/she will experience in the future. Our children are at the center of the educational circle. Therefore, what is best for children is the guide we use to make all decisions concerning our school. Many programs are in place at Cameron to support the child socially, emotionally, physically and academically. The staff is dedicated to the success of each student. Our School's motto is, "Each one, Reach one." Parents are our partners in the educational process. We invite you to take an active role in your child's education. Together we can make a difference.
