Shoreline Early Alert – Reminder & Important Dates

Shoreline Early Alert (SEA) Flyer 2016
Dear Campus:

The Shoreline Early Alert (SEA) team would like to thank faculty and staff for continuing to refer students to academic intervention, support, and services! So far we have received over 80 (domestic and international) referrals. Thank you for continuing to support our students and connecting them to resources.

Since an early alert works best when it’s early, this is a reminder that February 17 is the last day a “W” grade is issuedso there is still time to refer students for intervention. Examples of SEA referrals include: 

  • Low test scores
  • Unexplained excessive absenteeism or tardiness
  • Pacing in an online class
  • Not doing assignments
  • Financial matters
  • External concerns

What happens next:
After our team receives a referral a member will work to respond within 24 hours to both you and the student. We continue to reach out to the student in order to set up an initial meeting where we assess the student’s needs and most appropriate resources. *REMINDER: Intervention is a process and may not produce immediate results. Our goal is to reach out to the student early in the quarter and connect them to the appropriate resources.*

Please view the above flyer and visit our site to learn more about SEA or to view our Referral Form.

We look forward to continuing to work with you and to support our students!

Thanks,
SEA Team

Productive Persistence Workshop, Thurs., Feb. 4

What is this?  This workshop, offered by Lawrence Morales and Jane Muhich, math professors at Seattle Central, presents usable approaches to helping your students stay the course, build stamina and succeed. While the original work was done with math students, this applies to all students in all disciplines, and Profs. Morales and Muhich have built a large cohort of faculty who have adopted these strategies. Watch this video to learn more!
