She joined the Meridian community in 2011 at the start of the school's inaugural year as the Triple A Enrichment Program Coordinator. As the Triple A Coordinator, she created the foundation of Meridian's K-5 after school and a la carte programs.

She is here to:

  • Help you feel better connected to the Meridian community
  • Serve as Title IX Coordinator for students
  • Provide guidance and feedback for challenging situations
  • Ensure your sense of belonging at Meridian

 

Serving the Meridian community gives Mrs. Swain the opportunity to share her personal interests and to encourage others to express what sparks their interest while “enjoying a good life with others.”
