Wayland Town Crier 1/4/12: A historic day for Wayland High School. A new 157,000-square-foot facility opened its doors for Wayland High School students on Tuesday. Principal Pat Tutwiler welcomed the students and staff into their new school on the first day back from winter vacation. He thanked the many volunteers and school staff who devoted “maybe thousands” of hours to getting the new school built and preparing for the move. “We need to be mindful that this is a very important day in the town and the High School’s history, and it only comes along once in every 50 years,” he said, alluding to the fact that the old building, now slated for demolition, dated back to 1960. “As such, it’s appropriate for us to reflect and to extend credit and thanks where they’re due.” In particular, Tutwiler noted the commitment of the High School Building Committee (HSBC) members.
