R.T. Cream Elementary School

Principal's Message

As an educator and administrator in the Camden City Public School System for many years, I am devoted to the success and educational well-being of our most valuable resource, our children. Our website has been prepared in anticipation that it will become a valuable tool of school information.

As you browse this site, you will become familiar with our school, its policies, and be provided with updated school news, schedules, and events. With your support, I know this will be a productive, educational, and exciting year.

Cream School takes great pride in providing your children with a safe and secure academic environment while at the same time offering a wide array of exciting and challenging academic programs.

Some of the activities the students will participate in are:

• College Tours to Temple University and Rutgers
• Lockheed Martin – Engineering Program (Designing and building robots for 6 – 8 grade students)
• Linvilla Orchards
• Liberty Science Center
• Adventure Aquarium, Circus
• Philadelphia Zoo
• Diva Mentoring Program for Girls
• CHAMP Program
• Longwood Gardens
• Medieval Times.

Our goal is to educate the whole child by making your son/daughter well rounded.

Welcome to another exciting school year! My name is Ms. Cynthia Martinez-Hayes. I am glad to have been given the opportunity to work with the parents and students at Riletta Twyne Cream Family School where great things are happening. I look forward to the success of your child as he/she is challenged to reach full academic potential to maximize achievement. 

Although I am new to the R.T. Cream Family School, I am not new to the Camden City School System. I know that parents play a very important role in the education of their child, and without your support, academic achievement would not be possible. 

Parent support comes in many different ways and it is greatly appreciated by: 

• Making sure that your child attends school everyday 
• Making sure your child is on time 
• Making sure your child reads at least 30 minutes a night
• Makin sure your child follows ALL school rules and policies
• Making sure homework is completed and returned to school 
• Attending scheduled conferences 
• Attending PTO meetings 

Parents want what is best for their child and the staff at R.T. Cream Family School is committed to giving their best. I am proud to be a part of a staff that has made a great commitment to education. I look forward to meeting and working with you and your child.
