Por or para are not used. Nuestra clase es a las 10 de la mañana. La clase comienza a las 10 de la mañana.

I´ll add just a tick of explanation.

I remember getting this wrong on my first Spanish quiz almost exactly one year ago.

Although ´por la mañana´ and even ´en la mañana´ do have their uses, as soon as you want to name a specific, numeric time, you have to use ´de la mañana´

Same thing with any numeric time, in any period of the day or night.
