This drive brought the town together and impacted both the students in Connect, as well as the greater Wayland community. “You could see how helpful the town was and how our community came together and wanted to help out a community that wasn't our own [and] kids who were less fortunate than we were,” senior and Connect Program member Jordynn Lee said.](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/screenshot_2024-12-20_at_12.21.24___pm_720-e1734734228474.png)

Above is a sample question from the WHS advisory survey. Wayland High School students took an online survey that asked questions relating to how advisory is run.
On Feb. 10, Wayland High School students took an online survey written by Math Department Head Barbara Coughlin that asked questions relating to how advisory is run. Questions such as, “Do you think advisory helps build a sense of community at the high school?” were asked.

The results are listed below (courtesy of Allyson Mizoguchi):
