Wayland Student Press Network 11/29/11: New school nears completion. Scheduled for completion on January 3rd, the new high school is nearing the end of its 800 day construction period. Now that the building structure is complete, work is now focused on finishing the interior of the new buildings. Two weeks ago, the school received a Certificate of Occupancy for one of the two newly constructed buildings, permitting people to enter the building without needing hard hats or jackets. In upcoming weeks, furniture such as tables, chairs, and desks will arrive at the new buildings. According to Principal Patrick Tutwiler, everything is on schedule for the school-wide move-in after winter vacation.

Boston Globe 8/28/11: Building education. When new high schools open in Wayland and Wellesley this winter, they will be kicking off the largest wave of new high schools in area communities since the state lifted a moratorium on construction projects in 2007. Next up are Natick High School, due for completion in June; Tahanto Regional Middle/High School, slated to open during the 2012-2013 school year, and Maynard High School, projected to come on line in the fall of 2013. Other area districts with new high schools working their way through the state’s funding pipeline include Ayer-Shirley, Concord-Carlisle, Franklin, Marlborough, and the Minuteman regional vocational system. “The current school was built over 50 years ago,” said Lea Anderson, chairwoman of Wayland’s high school building committee. “It was just very small and crowded for the program we were offering. It had outlived its life expectancy.” Wayland’s new high school will open in January, while Wellesley’s will open in February.
