The current selection of Marcia L. Fudge as the commencement speaker for the class of 2024 does not align with the values we uphold in Shaker Heights, OH. As a community, we believe in promoting safety and justice. Ms. Fudge's support for an individual found guilty of domestic violence against our beloved Aisha Fraser contradicts these principles.

We demand the 2024 Shaker Heights High School commencement speaker be immediately replaced with a speaker who better represents our values and is at the very least sensitive to the class of 2024's lived experiences.

Let us ensure that our commencement ceremony is led by someone who truly embodies what Shaker Heights stands for including one of the District's Core Values: accountability.
