2. Reedley College is committed to student success and retention. SARS-Alert is a tool that allows us to identify students who are having difficulties and connect them with services to help them be successful. This new program allows for more instructor alert referral options and provides instantaneous communication of alert information to students and support programs. Early Alert referrals can be made anytime during week 1 through the last day of instruction (Fall, Spring, Summer).
