![The Wayland Police Department have issued a warning on the rise of scammers during the holiday season. “Hang up [the phone]. if you get a text and you do not know who it's from, just delete it. 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)
![The Boy Scouts will be selling trees on Fridays from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., Saturdays 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sundays noon to 6 p.m. until they sell out.
“This event is one of the things that [the Boy Scouts] get to have a direct impact on the community,” freshman Alex Macleod said.](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Screenshot-2024-12-11-at-8.38.38 AM.png)

Fashionistas of the Month: March Edition
Name: Ami/e Ghosh
Grade: Sophomore
Favorite store: “Thred-up. It’s an online thrift store and the website interface is a nightmare but they have a huge selection of second-hand clothing, and it’s all in really good condition.”
Online shopping or in-store: “Online shopping. I hate trying on clothes in-store so much that I’d prefer to just not try them on at all.”
Fashion icon: “I don’t have a specific person or brand. If I need inspiration I just google, but I will give the cliche answer and say that best dressed on YouTube has some really good videos.”
Outfit: “I never remember where I got my clothes, but I know the jacket was thrifted, the jeans are from Old Navy, and the boots are Doc Martens.”
Favorite season: “Winter. I wear a lot of full-coverage outfits because it’s what I’m comfortable in, and winter is the best time to not get strange looks for it.”
Design time: “I actually very rarely plan an outfit beforehand. I change in the morning, before I take out my night contacts, so I’m half blind and pick everything by texture alone. Comfort matters more to me than cohesiveness.”
Favorite article of clothing: “Bulky jackets. Warm, shapeless, comfortable.”
Style word: “Ranged.”
Advice for the fashion-challenged: “Don’t bother trying to follow trends. Wear what makes you comfortable and don’t worry about having a set style. As long as you’re confident in it, it’s a good outfit.”
Name: Jasmine Fu
Grade: Sophomore
Favorite store: “I like shopping at sport stores such as Nike. I also enjoy shopping online for cheap clothes.”
Online shopping or in-store: “In-store because judging proportions and material is hard online. I had many bad online shopping [experiences] where an item is much bigger or smaller than expected.”
Fashion icon: “My dad.”
Outfit: “I am wearing a polo shirt and waterproof hiking pants with a belt. I am also wearing a beanie.”
Favorite season: “The summer because I enjoy wearing t-shirts and shorts.”
Design time: “I usually think about what I am wearing right before school. This gives me a chance to figure out the ‘vibes’ of the day. It can also lead to fun surprises later in the day.”
Favorite article of clothing: “I like my Under Armour sweater because it is comfortable and has big pockets.”
Style word: “I would describe my style as practical.”
Advice for the fashion-challenged: “I would advise the fashion-challenged to think about color coordination. I would also advise the fashion-challenged to value comfort over flashiness.”
