• Wayland Home Sales, Prices And Inventory Rose In August (patch.com) — Wayland's housing market saw notable gains in August, with more home sales, higher median prices than a year ago, and a larger number of properties on the market. Local buyers and sellers are navigating a market where inventory is expanding, prices remain strong, and statewide data show continued demand across Massachusetts.
• WHS responds with mixed feelings to new Chromebooks (waylandstudentpress.com) — Wayland High School students and staff are adjusting to a switch from MacBook Airs to Chromebook Plus laptops, with some classes scrambling for software workarounds and loaner MacBooks. While certain tech-heavy courses and clubs feel the limitations, others appreciate fewer broken devices and familiarity from middle school, as the community gradually adapts to the new routine.
