COLA has partnered with the City of St Louis Adult Educational Department to provide continuing educational services for youth and adults within the St. Louis community. 

Due to Covid-19 and need for further funding to meet the ever-growing needs of technology and access, the Education Division is seeking assistance to revamp and restart programming. If you would like to support this program, please email donations@circleoflightassociates.org. 

GED, Tutoring, and mentoring programs

​​An individual's needs in our community go far beyond just obtaining a diploma. Our mission is to provide quality continuing educational services for adults and children and training that will address the growing demands in our community. 

Despair isn’t limited to one age group and we want to help individuals of all ages to increase knowledge and gain employment through learning opportunities such as GED, tutoring, mentoring, and basic computer training. 

The demand for continuing educational services are great and we are committed to providing the community with a quality learning experience, along with motivational and interpersonal services.

We hope to encourage and provide a learning experience instrumental in the growth of our community. Motivation and dedication are the high points of our program that will help students reach their goals.
