"The exterior is still a nice monument to remember buildings [involved in] water history," Hoey said. "We all drink lots of water, and it's such an important resource that we kind of take for granted nowadays."](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/IMG_2024-1200x800.jpg)

Election Day brings ice cream for all
When it’s the end of May and temperatures are in the 90s, there’s only one good way to cope. Student Council ran their annual Free Ice Cream Day today during lunch, following Student Council and E-Board officer elections.
Students and teachers alike braved the heat and waited in a line that snaked through the school courtyard throughout 4th block. However, the elections remain undecided because several homerooms failed to vote today. According to Dean of Students Scott Parseghian, those homerooms will vote tomorrow instead, and the results will be announced at the end of the school day.
