New Playground Installed at Country View Elementary

Country View Elementary School celebrated the grand opening of its new playground on September 11, 2024. The playground was made possible thanks to a generous R.A.M.P grant, community donations, and the tireless efforts of school staff, parents, and community members.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony was attended by school officials, local dignitaries, parents, and excited students. Principal Mary Heslop expressed her gratitude to everyone who contributed to the project, highlighting the dedication and hard work of the school community.

The new playground is a testament to the power of collaboration and community spirit. Principal Heslop added "This will benefit their education by allowing them to release energy, build social connections, and come back to the classroom ready to learn."

The playground features a variety of play equipment, including slides, swings, climbing structures, and imaginative play areas. The new space is designed to promote physical activity, social interaction, and creativity among students.

"The community all came together and made it happen," said Amber Jones, the Country View PTA President. She was impressed with how quickly it happened once everyone got involved.

The playground project was funded in part by a grant from Weber County R.A.M.P  and through fundraising efforts by the school's PTA and community members. The school also received generous donations from local businesses and countless individuals.

The new playground is expected to benefit students for years to come and serve as a valuable community resource.
