EPCOR Program

(Eastminster Presbyterian Church Outreach Program)

In 1997, the Eastminster Presbyterian Church founded its outreach program designed

to help with the academic and social needs of students in grades five and six at Edison

Elementary School. It is comprised of a two and a half hour after-school program

located at the church at 2110 East Lake Road. The after-school agenda is as follows:

2:30pm-3:00pm: Socialization time

3:00pm-3:45pm: Academic Tutoring

3:45pm-4:30pm: Activities/ Snack

The staff is comprised of all volunteers from the Eastminster Church who tutor the

students in all areas of academics including math, English, social studies, reading,

history and other subjects. The Erie School District provides transportation to and

from the after-school program. Additionally, the EPCOR program received two new

computers and hardware for the students to complete other academic subjects such

as book reports and term papers. At the conclusion of the school year a graduation

ceremony is held at the church. Parents are encouraged to attend and support their

child.
