Lastly, Class of 1989 alums David Lyons and Stephanie Archuleta—board members of the Los Alamos Public Schools Foundation—are challenging their fellow alumni to join them in raising $5,000 for the Foundation before the end of the reunion. Lyons said, “There’s no question that these Los Alamos schools helped make each of us who we are today. Stephanie and I are asking our fellow graduates to give back by donating whatever amount they are able to help continue the important work of the Foundation.”
