The Athens Social Studies Club recently partnered with the Troy City Clerk’s Office to host a voter registration drive, helping 43 Athens students register to vote! This initiative gave students the opportunity to engage in the democratic process and make a meaningful impact in their community. We are proud of these future voters for taking an active role in civic engagement and helping strengthen our democracy.
Congratulations to a team of Troy High staff and alumni who completed the 2026 Detroit Free Press Marathon on Sunday, October 18! Despite chilly 36-degree temperatures at the start, the team crossed the finish line in under five hours!
The team included retired Spanish teacher Angie Griesmann, science teacher Michael Vollmayer, assistant administrator Dan House, art teacher Mihye Kang, and 2018 THS graduate Andrew Griesmann.
Fueled by teamwork, resilience, and friendship, the group had a fantastic time and hopes to make this an annual tradition. Way to represent, THS!
