Sondra Wyman

LAPS News:

Longtime Los Alamos resident Sondra Wyman has submitted a letter of interest to fill the vacancy in District 5, created by the resignation of School Board member Erin Green.

District 5 includes Mountain Elementary School.

Wyman’s three children attended Los Alamos Public Schools, including Mountain Elementary School. She worked for Los Alamos Public Schools for four years, first as a substitute teacher, then as a special education instructional assistant and then as Los Alamos High School Athletic Secretary before pursuing a career in the procurement field. She also has held volunteer and employment positions with several non-profit organizations in Los Alamos.

“My experience as a parent, volunteer, and employee in the Los Alamos schools and in Los Alamos non-profit organizations demonstrates to the School Board that I am an invested member of the Los Alamos community, and not simply a resident,” Wyman stated in her letter of interest. “That experience also offers the Los Alamos School Board the opportunity to add another member to the Board with a compassionate, thoughtful, and well-rounded perspective.”

“I would like to participate in the process that guides a safe and excellent education for our community kids, and that supports our exceptional Los Alamos educators,” she added.

Wyman was the only person to submit a letter of interest.

The School Board will take action on filling the vacancy during the next meeting starting at 5:30 p.m. Jan. 10 in the School Boardroom.
