Eighteen-year-old Capac resident Anna Dalessandro is on track to graduate with more than her high school diploma this year. In May, she also will earn an associate degree in general education, associate in business and associate in art thanks to the partnership between the Blue Water Middle College (BWMCA), St. Clair County Community College and St. Clair County Regional Educational Service Agency (RESA).
The partnership — which provides free college tuition for students — has allowed Dalessandro to attend high school for three hours a day, take college courses, continue to participate in extracurricular activities and work at a part-time job.
