Hello, Mary.
LyX knows nothing about .cls files really. The classes found in
Layout | Document | Class are defined by the .layout files to be found
in ${PREFIX}/share/lyx/layouts. Usually, you can get a long way with
a sffms.layout file that contains little more than an instruction to
input either article.layout or book.layout.
See, eg, extarticle.layout, below
