The Athens Drive High School Music Program is simply the most impressive organization that I have ever been involved with. Athens Drive High School is a public High School whose Music Program currently supports an acclaimed Marching Band, a nationally recognized Wind Ensemble, the Drum Line, the Symphonic Band, the Concert Band, the Color Guard, the Jazz Band, Winter Percussion, and the Winter Guard.
The students are able to create music that is absolutely beautiful. The experience of being in the ADHS Music Program is something that these High School students will treasure for the rest of their lives… most people will never have the opportunity to be a part of something truly great; but these kids are able to flourish and thrive in the ADHS Music Program for four years.
If you have ever wondered what it looks like when someone is in the perfect fit for their job; look no further than the ADSH Band Director, Dr. Jerry (Doc) Markoch. Doc is able to make a positive and indelible impact on these kids’ lives through the Music Program.
I am very happy that my children have the opportunity to be a part of an organization like the ADHS Music Program.

If I was able to make changes to this organization, I would create significant fund raising infrastructure that would ease the annual financial burden on the students' families and increase the opportunities for students with limited financial resources.
