We are excited to welcome our alumnae from the class of 1988, Diane Wallace Booker, Esq., as our guest speaker for Alumni Homecoming, on March 11, 2023. Diane traveled the country and saw first-hand the devastating effects of poverty, crime, trauma, and the lack of educational equity on the hopes and dreams of young people living there, she often reflected on her own upbringing and was committed to bringing some of those same supports to children living in high-risk neighborhoods. She is passionate about creating opportunities for young people to achieve their dreams.
Diane is nationally recognized for her work in youth development, social justice, and her extensive experience in non-profit management. In October 2018, Diane received the Icons and Innovators for Social Justice Award at the BE SOCIAL for Justice Gala presented by BronxConnect, Africa Rising and the Christian Cultural Center. In 2018 she was asked to be one of five non-profit leaders represented on stage at Michelle Obama’s “Becoming” Tour in Washington, D.C. and was recently awarded a Community Service Award from Stennis Enterprises for her work in San Bernardino, CA.

Many classes hold their reunion the Saturday evening of Alumni Weekend with a dinner. If you would like to use any of LLA’s facilities for your venue and to schedule a campus tour please contact the Advancement Office.
At your request, the Advancement team is able to provide a detailed list of your class. As you receive a new address or email information, please pass this information to the Advancement team so we can update our records.
High school anniversary or reunion gifts are always appreciated. If you need ideas or recommendations, the Advancement team is happy to share with you.
The Advancement Office has the ability to do a mass email. If you have a message you would like to get out to your class, email the message to alumni@lla.org and we will get that sent out. Keep in mind that replies will come to the alumni office. You will be supplied with e-mail addresses as well.
Two mailings seem to be enough. The first mailing could be a survey including options for a reunion date/venue/cost. As soon as you have a date – do an email with Save-the-Date information. The second mailing should be the specifics of the reunion event asking classmates to send in their payment and a news update.
Reunion announcements will be posted in the Alumni section and on Facebook. After your reunion, please send us a summary of the event that we can share on both the website and in any publications from the school. The Facebook Alumni Group for LLA is a very useful tool for staying connected with all things alumni at LLA.
