Alma Mater Scholarship Program

Heights alumni are proud of their high school alma mater, as well as their college alma mater. With this in mind, the Cleveland Heights High School Alumni Foundation ispleased to announce a new scholarship program. Heights alumni can support studentsattending their college alma mater, by donating to a scholarship awarded to a student who plans on attending the same college as they did.

While our goal is a scholarship specific to each school listed below, at this time we are setting up our Alma Mater Scholarship based on three regions: Ohio, East of Ohio and West of Ohio. Once we have enough contributions earmarked for a specific college, we will then create a scholarship unique to that school. When sending in your contribution, be sure to note which school(s) your donation is for.

Alma Mater Scholarship | Ohio Bowling Green State University; Case Western Reserve University; Cleveland State University (Fenn); Cuyahoga Community College; John Carroll University; Kent State University; Miami University; Ohio University; The Ohio State University; University of Cincinnati; or the University of Toledo

Alma Mater Scholarship | East Boston University; Columbia; Cornell; Dartmouth; Georgetown; Harvard; John Hopkins; MIT; NYU; Princeton; Syracuse; or Yale

Alma Mater Scholarship | West Indiana University; Loyola; Northwestern; Purdue; Stanford; UC Berkeley; UCLA; University of Chicago; University of Michigan; or University of Wisconsin

New Alumni Directory


Be sure to answer your phone and reply to the postcards that are coming your way, as Harris Connect is putting together the next Alumni Directory. This guide is assembled every five years and is a vital component in updating the alumni database we maintain and provide to reunion committees. Be sure to participate in the online portion of the project, which let's us know if you participated in extracurricular programs like the IMD, VMD or a sport.

 
History of the Heights School
The Cleveland Heights Historical Society recently did a feature on the history of the Heights school buildings in their newsletter View from The Overlook. You can download a copy here, and learn more Cleveland Heights history at the Historical Society's website.
 
Clair McElfresh Scholarship Fund

A group of alumni are excited about creating a scholarship fund in honor of vocal music teacher, Dr. Clair T. McElfresh, otherwise known as “Mac”. Mac directed the Heights High Men’s Chorus and Girls’ Glee Club in the early to mid-60s, and from ‘66 until 1973, the Cleveland Heights High School Choir.

They are seeking all Heights High Choir, Glee Club, and Men’s Chorus alumni who want to thank Clair McElfresh (Mac) for the great example he set in terms of musicianship, showmanship, and character. To learn more about Mac’s Scholarship, go to www.mac-scholarship.wikispaces.com.

11th Alumni Foundation Cocktail Party

It would appear the new date worked just fine for the Foundation's Cocktail Party, held at Rockefeller's at Mayfield & Lee on November 10th. Guests stayed late into the night enjoying the appetizers and desserts, and those who stayed till the end found a little bit of snow on their cars! The highlight of the evening was the raffle, with the Apple iPad won by a member of the Class of '78 and the TV by a teacher at Heights. Congratulations to them and thank you to all of those who bought raffle tickets.

A special thank you goes out to those who donated to our silent auction and to our sponsors. Since they are good enough to support us, we hope you will be kind enough to support them and visit their websites.
