![From left to right freshman Julianna McDonald, junior Sophia Verma, freshman Marissa Mendoza and sophomores Melody and Marissa Wong stand together, each grabbing a piece of dough to mold. 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)
![Made by the current events class last school year, a display on the Russia-Ukraine war hangs in the History Wing. The display has since been taken down, as over a year has passed since the war began. “This war shouldnt have started,” junior Misha Eberle said. “Nobody should have to die over these geopolitical forces that are just playing a game of chess. These [people] are just pawns in the game. So every death in this war is a tragedy.”](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Screen-Shot-2023-04-05-at-8.36.02-PM-900x600.png)
![WHS alumni Lizzy Francis and Sam Goldstone began the process of creating a stand alone race class for freshmen in 2020. “I think that a large issue with this country in general, honestly, is just [people] being uneducated and being unaware of different experiences,” WHS alum Lizzy Francis said. “I think that [by] bringing awareness to these social situations, we become better people, and we create a new generation of people that are kinder to each other, willing to listen and willing to be advocates for those who cant be advocates.”](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Screen-Shot-2022-06-16-at-4.22.47-PM-900x597.png)
![“Women of Wayland” podcast creator Yamini Ranjan promotes the newest season of her podcast. The goal of the podcast is to share the stories of Wayland women, as well as bring the Wayland community closer together. “I don’t feel alone doing this podcast,” Ranjan said. “I always say ‘we,’ I never say ‘I’ because I feel like it’s a collaboration of women and me together, and that’s how the stories come out. It’s never my podcast, it’s always our podcast [because] its a community podcast.”](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/iBQPM4XhiWUTyJsafTV5cyMkwshnh018S53wLDb8.png)
![Seniors Skylar Gould and Emily Chau color bookmarks before heading to the Green Team and Sewing Club fashion show. [Library de-stress] was really nice, Chau said. I got to color, [and] I did some origami. It was a really fun time.](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/41226243-A6FF-4D26-A6F1-0B092278DBBE_1_105_c-XL-900x600.jpg)
![On Tuesday, Nov. 23, the Alliance Club hosted Anonymous Ask, an event in the auditorium where WHS students asked panelists about sex, gender, relationships and many other topics. The event was held entirely in the dark, except for lights on the panelists, to use anonymity as encouragement for students to ask questions that they otherwise may feel too awkward or uncomfortable to ask. I definitely feel that there’s a big need [for this event],” librarian assistant and co-advisor of Alliance Kassie Wright said. For one, this school teaches abstinence, which is great and I definitely think is good, but we also have to be realistic and know that there are kids who are going to be practicing sex and this is a way to teach them safe sex, safe gender, safe things about their relationships [and] any type of thing that they may not have known.](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Screen-Shot-2021-12-06-at-9.09.28-AM-900x655.png)
