Education & Enrichment Ministry
Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it – Proverbs 22:6
The West Angeles Education and Enrichment Ministry (EEM) provides various educational programs for our youth, adults, and surrounding communities. EEM empowers students by providing a raised standard of excellence and access to resources. These opportunities are equally spread throughout the entire congregation and their families.
Directed by Deacon John Wilson, the EEM Program is provided in accordance with the COGIC Urban Initiatives, and the directives of our Pastor and Presiding Bishop, Charles E. Blake, Sr.
Our ministry accomplishes our mission through after-school studies, SAT prep courses, college admission and financial aid information, youth development rites of passage programs, and summer enrichment programs.
OUR PROGRAMS
After-school Enrichment
West Angeles’ After-school Enrichment Program offers focused study in all levels of Math, Science, History, and English, for grades 6-12. We teach concepts in small groups with enhanced one-on-one help as needed.
Students today are exposed to algebra concepts and formulas much earlier. Unfortunately, a large portion of students is failing their math classes due to unpreparedness. Parents can bridge the gap in learning by becoming involved with their children in our math, science, and history enrichment classes.
Limited Enrollment! To enroll your child in our program, please download the registration package below and bring it to our office between the hours of 1:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday thru Friday.
Also, if you are interested in a high-quality and affordable one-on-one tutor in all levels of math from Pre-Algebra to Calculus, please call our Program’s Math Contractor, Cherylnn Pope, CYP Tutorial Services, at 323/733-8300.
SAT Program
EEM offers a low-cost SAT Prep Course as part of the Princeton Review TM / West Angeles Church enrichment partnership. This prep course includes the course material, over 20 classroom hours, and two practice tests (evaluated by Princeton Review, America’s #1 Test Prep Provider). For many students, this course will raise SAT scores significantly, making all the difference in college admissions.

West Angeles College Readiness Program
The West Angeles College Readiness Program prepares parents and students for the college admissions process. In our weekend sessions, families get a chance to sit and speak with college admissions counselors. Information the counselors provide for students and their families include:
- how to navigate the financial aid office
- how find scholarships
- how to complete college
Meeting application deadlines, writing essays, and visiting campuses can make the admissions process overwhelming, but the path to your child’s success doesn’t have to be. Choosing the right school is crucial to your child’s success. The family should be prepared for all the changes that come with this transition – both financially and academically.

Scholarship Giving
Our scholarship program, the West Angeles Sponsorship Fund Organization (WASFO), enables the congregation and the community to provide financial support to our West Angeles scholars as they make their way through college.
Each year, West Angeles has an annual sponsorship fund drive in which the congregation is asked to participate, but giving is welcome any time of the year!
