Welcome to the Los Alamos High School Class Of 1980 web site. We're glad that you are here! Please make yourself at home...catch up with old friends...make new ones...relive great memories...and savor the gift of time by spending some of it here with us.
Many of you have journeyed well since graduation, reflecting that it is not so much how you start out, but how you finish the race that counts. As we continue to make progress, it takes great courage to share our achievements...AND our failures, our triumphs...AND our defeats, our hopes, AND our dreams, as we enter the home stretch of this journey...called life.
When you think about it...there will forever be, only one class of 1980...a very special, unique place and time we can call our own. Our hope, is that in the fullness of time, this site becomes our own intimate community, dedicated to "paying it forward" through the inspiration...perspiration and contributions of all those who come.
Lastly...we leave you with a word of encouragement for those who continue to "dare greatly" in the arena of life:
"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out howthe strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
Teddy Roosevelt "Citizenship in a Republic,"
Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910
