Can you believe that in 2009 members of the second Lamar graduating class, in 1939, (70 years ago) will be approximately eighty six years young in 2009! (Many of those classmates graduated at the age of 16). And just think, they still get together to celebrate their graduation and most of all, their friendships. There were several from that class that attended the school’s 70th Anniversary on Nov 3rd 2007.
Your Alumni

Lamar school (now linked to ours).

about your reunion when calls come in to the school and the alumni
office. People call us when they don't know who else to call.

is a continuing project that we have undertaken)
