Countryside High School is located in the beautiful northeastern portion of Pinellas County and serves the communities of Clearwater and Safety Harbor. In addition, students from the Palm Harbor and East Lake areas also choose to become Countryside Cougars. As a result, we are one of the larger schools within the Pinellas County school system and are considered a premier high school.  

Countryside High School consistently ranks among the top schools in the region due to our student academic progression, diverse accelerated course offerings, and parent involvement and is one of the more highly selected schools in Pinellas County.
