Grants

Reaching Heights offers grants so that front line educators in the Cleveland Heights-University Heights public schools can bring their ideas to fruition. The grants make it easier for our dedicated staff and committed community to solve problems, enrich learning and solidify connections. The grant teams have the ideas and the opportunity to work with our students. The grants provide the teams funds and encouragement to translate their dedication into action.

Teams have implemented many wonderful ideas since Reaching Heights started making grants in 1990. Click on each program to learn about that grant program and to review projects that have been implemented.
