VA L E N T I N E CARDS
Resident families were invited out to the conservatory to create a special card for their valentine! Beautiful cards were made that we’re sure the special someone receiving the gift will cherish forever.
HOA UPDATE 2021 is off to a wonderful start! Spring is already right around the corner, and it is time to start thinking about exterior projects. Please remember that before you make any changes, please submit an ACC application and include all supporting documentation. We will review and provide a response as quickly possible, usually within two weeks or less.
DANCE WITH MERIDIANA Mariel Blain Dance Studio came out for an evening of Tango/Rumba and residents danced the night away with their Valentine!
Please also be reminded, if you have not paid your 2021 annual assessment, it is not too late. By this time, additional fees have been incurred, but you can still make your payment. The fastest way to pay is online, via your Townsquare account. If you need assistance logging in, please email Customer Care at customercare@inframark.com. Sincerely,

MERIDIANA’S NEXT ONSITE SCHOOL NEARS COMPLETION FOR FALL As workers put the finishing touches on Meridiana’s newest onsite school, Alvin ISD administrators are touting Jackie Doucet Caffey Junior High as a next-generation campus, the latest to incorporate the best ideas and designs from other junior highs in the district. Opening this fall, Meridiana’s second onsite school offers spacious classrooms, about 10 percent larger than other junior high schools, extra-wide hallways with flex break out areas, ample natural light and commissioned mural art. Its signature student-centered space is the amphitheater-style Learning Stairs, ideal for promoting collaboration, flexibility, creativity and wellness. Located next to an open-concept library, the stairs can be transformed from an informal group meeting area to a formal teaching or lecture space. Other campus features include a studio-quality theater with built-in lighting; semiand fully soundproof rooms for theater arts, band and choir; expansive art room with polished marble floors and a Kiln Room for pottery making; large chemistry and science labs; technology lab with extended space for robotics building; theater-style outdoor classroom space with outlets for laptops; and a technology studio for the study of digital graphics, coding and other platforms. As for athletics, Caffey Junior High boasts its own football field, track, tennis courts and competition gym with bleachers on either side of the court. An auxiliary gym with partition is available for volleyball and other indoor sports. Students also can access a newly designed weight room, about 25% larger than those at other junior high schools. While Caffey Junior High nears completion, construction continues at Iowa Colony High School, opening fall 2022, adjacent to Meridiana. Along with the onsite Meridiana Elementary, Meridiana will be the only Texas 288 community of new homes with all three levels of education within or adjacent to its neighborhoods.
