![On Thursday, Nov. 23, Thanksgiving morning, the Wayland High School Warriors (7-3) will take on Weston High School’s Wildcats (3-6) at 10 a.m. on Wayland High School’s turf.
“Coach has been motivating us about this big rivalry game and we really want to show all the work we have been putting in during this [game],” sophomore cornerback Braylen Jenkins said. “Our whole team has been putting in a lot of work and we hope it translates to this big rivalry game so we can get a win for the seniors and our town.”](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Add-a-heading-3-1200x800.png)

After senior Eileen Kaewapresert made the pasta dough, the rest of the students got to create the shapes of their choice. “At first, this was only a small group to bond with two special needs students, Melody and Marissa [Wong], because they already had an interest in cooking,” Kaewprasert said.](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/18CCCDA2-968D-4E23-8DD9-E1C0F29F7BCE_1_201_a-900x600.jpeg)

![Earlier this month, WHS students auditioned for the highly selective Eastern Senior Districts ensembles. These ensembles allow high school students to improve their own musical ability and to play with other accomplished musicians as well. I really like watching the district rehearsals, WHS band director Joe Oneschuk said. You get to see the whole creative process happen. The [auditions include] strangers coming together who have never played with each other before, [and it] goes from a kind of rough first take to a really beautiful finished product.](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/H6MHFZCky83Q3K4Rn46b08j223aRJK7VgA8CxMm9-1200x800.jpg)

Our Goal
Your donation will support the student journalists of Wayland High School. Your contribution will allow us to purchase equipment, cover our annual website hosting costs and sponsor admission and traveling costs for the annual JEA journalism convention.
Why your donation matters:
WSPN is primarily a reader-supported publication. Without the generosity of our community and local businesses, we wouldn’t have been able to provide the award-winning publication you see today.
Your donation goes towards:
- the costly and ongoing operational costs of running a high-traffic website.
- the purchase of equipment (cameras, software, computers).
- the education of young journalists, giving them the opportunity to attend journalism seminars and conventions.
All support is greatly appreciated and helps further the journalistic excellence of Wayland students.
