Wayland Student Press 12/14/11: New school presents opportunity to reevaluate traditions. Since the current high school was finished in 1960, Wayland High School students have had over 50 years to create traditions. With the move to the new school approaching, questions have arisen about what will happen to these traditions and how they might change. Bigger traditions such as Spirit Day, Winter Week and senior dress up day on Halloween will remain largely unaffected by the move, although they will face minor changes simply because of the design of the school. Some feel that these events are in need of changes anyway, and the new buildings will provide the opportunity.
