Events
The Philanthropy & Engagement Office hosts a variety of gatherings throughout the year that strengthen connections and support the mission of Manzano Day School. From our annual Golf Tournament benefiting the Wings Scholarship Program, to our biennial gala, Grandparents & Grandfriends Day, and Alumni Lunch, each event brings people together to celebrate connection, inspire giving, and create lasting memories for our students and families.
Annual Wings Golf Tournament
The annual Manzano Day School Golf Tournament brings together parents, alumni, and friends for a day of fun, friendly competition, and community spirit, all in support of our students. Proceeds from the event directly benefit the Wings Scholarship Program.


Gala
The Manzano Day School Gala is a night of celebration, community, and purpose. Every two years, families, alumni, and supporters gather to enjoy fine dining, entertainment, and spirited auctions, all in support of the school’s mission. Proceeds from the Gala directly fund programs and experiences that inspire curiosity, creativity, and lifelong learning for every student.
Grandparents & Grandfriends Day
Grandparents’ and Grandfriends’ Day is one of the most cherished traditions at Manzano Day School. It is a meaningful opportunity to celebrate the important role grandparents and special friends play in our students’ lives and to invite them into the joy of our learning community. The day is filled with connection, pride, and excitement as guests experience the classrooms, meet teachers, and share in the traditions that make our school so special.
Save the Date for the next Grandparents' and Grandfriends' Day on Thursday, March 26, 2026.


Alumni Luncheon
Every spring, we welcome our graduating high school alumni back to campus for a special luncheon that feels both nostalgic and inspiring. These former students return to the place where their educational journey began to share stories, memories, and the moments that shaped them during their years at Manzano Day School. They offer our fifth grade students heartfelt advice and a glimpse into the exciting paths ahead.
