Meet Ms. Hubbard
A message from Ms. Hubbard: "As a proud Laguna Creek graduate, I am excited to return to my alma mater as a counselor and once again be part of the Cardinal family. During my time as a student, I participated in soccer, golf, and football (as a kicker), and served as the head editor of the yearbook. After 16 years in education, including recently overseeing the district's AVID program, I am passionate about helping students navigate their high school experience, explore their goals, and prepare for life after graduation. I am grateful for the opportunity to support the next generation of Cardinals! "
Make sure to stop by the counseling office and say hello to Ms. Hubbard! 😊
