Don't click on any links, nothing,” Wayland police chief Edward Burman said. “Every single one of them is a scam.”](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/img_0954_720-e1734676255647.jpg)
![WHS’s Connect Program ran its annual holiday gift drive to fulfill the wishlist of children enrolled in the Dorchester based non-profit daycare organization, the Yawkey Center. 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)

On Friday, Oct. 30, all classes will be moved to remote due to the second positive COVID-19 case in the past week.
October 29, 2020
On Thursday, Oct. 29, WHS families received an email from Superintendent Arthur Unobskey notifying them of a second positive COVID-19 case at the high school in the past week.
Due to the short turnaround time, all high school classes will be moved to remote on Friday, Oct. 30. This means that Cohort B students who were supposed to attend school in-person tomorrow will attend their classes remotely tomorrow alongside Cohorts A and D. Unobskey stated in the email that the contact tracing process would not be completed by Friday morning.
“Conducting [Friday’s] classes remotely will allow the Health Department sufficient time to ensure that all close contacts have been identified and communicated with,” Unobskey wrote in the email.
No further information was given in the email, and as of Thursday night, only in-person classes for Friday, Oct. 30 have been canceled.
