Every spring we host a luncheon and invite alumni who are graduating from high school to return to campus. They share with our fifth-grade students memories of their time at Manzano Day School, as well as their future plans and words of wisdom. Parents of the alumni and teachers also join us at this event.

A very progressive thinker for her time, Ruth Hanna McCormick Simms, founded Manzano Day School in 1938. Beginning in 2006, Manzano Day School began honoring her with the Ruth Hanna McCormick Simms Alumni Recognition Award. The award is presented to an alumnus/alumnae who has continued to live out the spirit and mission of Manzano Day School. Recipients receive their award at the Ringing of the Bell ceremony. The recipient is also recognized in Manzano Day School's Twigs magazine.
