Thank You & Happy Summer

Dear Countryside Community,

As the school year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to thank everyone who made this year so meaningful and successful.

To our incredible principal, teachers, and staff: Thank you for your dedication, care, and guidance. You’ve created a nurturing environment where students thrive, and we’re so grateful to have you, and to partner with you through the PTO in supporting our school community.

To our wonderful families: Your support, generosity, and enthusiasm have been the heart of every event and initiative this year. Thank you for being such an engaged and caring community.

To our dedicated Board of Directors, Committee Chairs, Event Organizers, and all our volunteers: Your creativity, commitment, and countless hours of work powered everything the PTO accomplished. Whether you led a major initiative or offered your time whenever you could, your generosity of spirit, time, and talent made a lasting impact. We deeply appreciate the heart and effort you poured into building a stronger school community and making this year a true success.

A shoutout to our devoted Update Committee: Thank you for working tirelessly—even on weekends—week after week to ensure everyone received the 8pm Sunday update and helped keep our community informed, engaged, and connected!

A special thank you to our crossing guards: Your presence each morning and afternoon brought comfort and safety to students and families alike. Rain or shine, your friendly smiles and unwavering attention ensured our children arrived safely and started each day on the right foot. We are truly grateful for all that you do.

We’re also excited to introduce the newly elected PTO Board of Directors for the upcoming school year. We know they’ll bring fresh energy, thoughtful leadership, and a strong commitment to our community, and we wish them the best.

We’d like to celebrate those who are the heart of it all:

To all our amazing Countryside students: Bravo! You've worked hard, grown in so many ways, and accomplished great things. We celebrate you and everything you’ve achieved this year—what a fantastic job!

Congratulations to our hardworking graduating 5ᵗʰ graders! This is a huge milestone, and we couldn’t be prouder. As you take this exciting next step, remember the spirit of Countryside will always be with you. You’ve left your mark here, and we can't wait to see all the incredible things you’ll do next.

Wishing all Countryside families a wonderful summer—you've earned it!

Warmly,
The 2024-2025 PTO co-presidents
Tera, Adam, Maria
