Lee that we would present to our alma mater.  It is appropriate to present this gift 150 years after Lee became the principal general in the Confederate Army.  School Principal Abe Jeffers and LAFA officers will be present for the unveiling.  

1:15 pm – 3 pm – Current students will conduct TOURS of the renovated R.E. Lee HS.  Tours take about 20 minutes.  These FREE tours are open to all Lee alumni & guests.
