During the program a new portrait of A.R. Johnson was unveiled.  In addition, the A.R. Johnson school family presented the Augusta African American Historical Society with the second of two donations to go towards the replacement of the A.R. Johnson monument hit by a car several years ago.

The partnership between A.R. Johnson Magnet School and the AAAHS was started by the previous principal Charlie Tudor and continues under the leadership of their new principal Dr. Driggers.
