SC4 instructors will begin posting Early Alert grades on Monday, October 6. A Blue Water Middle College staff member will contact any student earning a C- or lower (including “U” grades). We’ll share strategies and connect you with resources to help you succeed. The entire Blue Water Middle College team is here to support you. If you’re struggling in one or more classes, this is not the time to withdraw - it's the time to regroup, connect with your instructor, use available resources, and put a plan in place to get back on track.
