Welcome

Our children and community deserve the best schools we can provide.

Reaching Heights, the Cleveland Heights-University Heights Public Schools Foundation, is a citizen organization that encourages residents of Cleveland Heights and University Heights, Ohio to contribute to the success of our public schools.

Founded in 1989, Reaching Heights mobilizes community resources to foster highly valued public schools that provide all Cleveland Heights-University Heights School District students a successful education.

It's not just the learning that takes place in the Cleveland Heights-University Heights City School district that makes our schools so important. It is that they are public—that all children have a right to be educated in them, and that the whole community is responsible for providing that education.

Public education offers a vision for a just and hopeful world that is available to all. Each of us is important to realizing this vision. Our public schools depend on people being responsible for one another. They are strengthened by this shared ownership and our community is stronger because we are connected through this shared responsibility. The children and our community benefit from the success of our public schools.
