The staff of the high school, middle school and all the elementary schools except Barranca (which is under construction) were surprised by newly refreshed and refurnished staff lounges! The LAPS Foundation just completed a $15,000 refresh of the staff lounges, which was meant to be a surprise for teachers and other staff when they returned for their first day on Tuesday. Los Alamos Middle School Principal Suzanne Lynne, left, and Assisant Principal Andy Ainsworth, right, joined, from left, LAPS Foundation Executive Director Laura Loy and LAPS Foundation Board members Louise O’Brien, Don Casperson, Karen Hawkins and Jenny McCumber in testing out the new furniture today in the LAMS Staff Lounge. The overhall included new appliances and furniture, among other improvements. Photo by Bonnie J. Gordon/ladailypost.com
