Background/History

Cameron Elementary School is located in the heart of West Covina. Situated next to a community park, adjacent to West Covina High School, our school is in the hub of community activities. Opening its doors in 1952, Cameron was originally a K-8 campus. Over the next thirty-six years, Cameron went through many configurations, and in 1988, became a K-5 elementary school in the West Covina Unified School District.

During the 2016-2017 school year, we added Transitional Kindergarten to our campus. An exceptionally professional staff includes highly qualified teachers, paraprofessionals, support providers and a principal. Each staff member strives to continuously improve the quality of the educational experience for all Cameron learners.

At Cameron Elementary School, we believe in a balanced education for all students. We are dedicated to providing  enriched learning opportunities. To facilitate this learning, all students in kindergarten through grade 5 are provided individual iPads for kindergarten and first grade students, and individual chromebooks for 2nd through 5th grade students as a tool for supporting inquiry and developing skills.
