The Winston-Salem School Board honored a local citizen on this day in 1939. The School Board approved the renaming of South High School. The name was changed to James A. Gray High School, in memory of James A. Gray.
See the post on James A. Gray Sr. on his January 2nd birthday to learn more about the man for whom the school was named.
Gray High School was later incorporated into the campus for the School of the Arts.
