Famous Flint Central.
​We believe it needs to be remembered for the greatness it was and the remarkable legacy it created. Luckily so did young filmmaker Lance Johnson...so he did something about it. He created a magnificent bit of cinematic history and the result is the film “Remembering Flint Central”.  Genesee County Historical Society is proud to showcase this amazing story.

Remembering Flint Central documentary

It has stood near the corner of Crapo and Kearsley Streets in Flint since construction began 102 years ago. Flint Central High School is a Flint--and arguably American--legendary structure. While in operation as a school from the inaugural graduating class in 1923, until its last class in 2009, it has produced some of the most important leaders and successful graduates in American history.
 
Among them are:
 

• The greatest leader in automobile history, William C. “Billy” Durant
• One of the most important people in aviation history, Clarence “Kelly” Johnson
• An architect of the Marshall Plan that saved Western Europe from Communist control, Dallas Dort
• One of the greatest female aviators, innovators, and leaders in world history in Bernice Steadman
• A very long list of world class professional athletes and Olympians
• The man who reinvented both Hollywood motion pictures and television, Frank Price
• The first woman to endeavor to cross the Pacific in an airplane, Mildred Doran

 
Yet it sits rotting and ignored.
 
We think that’s beyond sad. Instead, we believe it needs to be remembered for the greatness it was and the remarkable legacy it created. Luckily so did young filmmaker Lance Johnson...so he did something about it. He created a magnificent bit of cinematic history and the result is the film “Remembering Flint Central.”  The Genesee County Historical Society is extraordinarily proud to showcase this amazing story.
