Manzano Day School

Joy in Learning® Since 1938

Congratulations to our 2025 Good Apple Award Recipient, Cathy Hubbard!

Head of School, Cathy Hubbard, has devoted 26 years to Manzano Day School. Her journey began in the classroom, where she stood at the chalkboard teaching Joy in Learning® to first graders. Over the years, she embraced new roles, ultimately leading the school from the historic corner office of La Glorieta. Now, as this school year comes to a close, we celebrate another milestone- her well-earned retirement and the beginning of her next chapter.

To honor her extraordinary service and commitment, Cathy will be recognized as this year’s Good Apple recipient, the highest honor bestowed by Manzano Day School. This biennial award is given to a distinguished member of our school community who embodies the school’s spirit and remains steadfast in its mission.

As we celebrate Cathy’s contributions and legacy, we invite you to honor her dedication by making a gift to the Cathy Hubbard Innovation Fund. This fund will continue her passion for progress and excellence, supporting innovative programs that enhance the learning experience for future generations of Manzano Day School students.

Join us in expressing our gratitude and ensuring that Cathy’s impact on our school lives on for years to come.
