The Warren Clayman “White Owl” Memorial Scholarship

Warren Clayman, Class of 1954, loved his time at Heights High and continued friendships he made there throughout his life. A star athlete, Warren was a standout catcher on his high school baseball team, and continued to play at Ohio University and the University of Michigan. Warren eventually earned a master’s degree from NYU in City Planning. He was inspired to a life of civil service to make a difference. He worked for the Federal Government for most of his career as a planner for the U.S. Departments of Housing and Urban Development, Agriculture, and finally Energy. His legacy shines a light on the uniqueness of “The Heights Experience” and how special life-long bonds created at Heights High can be. Family, old classmates and friends gathered together to create this award in his memory shortly after his death in 2021.
