Janie Howard Wilson Elementary honored the past, present and future during a special re-dedication of the Johnnie L. Batson Media Center and Art Gallery during a Chamber After-Hours event Tuesday (Feb. 12).

Batson family members spoke about their father’s work as first principal of Janie Howard Wilson Elementary School during the 1960s and 1970s. The media center entrance now features photographs of every former principal, including Josephine Howard and Beverly Lynne, who both attended the event.
