WHS proposes condom availability for students
Wayland Student Press Network 1/4/11: WHS proposes condom availability for students | Wayland Student Press Network.

After conversations with students and reviewing the 2008 Youth Behavior Survey results, Schoeff had also noticed a high rate of sexual activity and a low rate of protection against STIs in the student population. With the support of Principal Patrick Tutwiler, school guidance counselors, the Board of Health and WHS parents, the Health Office decided to take action.
