Homecoming 2023 - October 13-15, 2023

Wayland welcomes all alumni to campus October 13–15, 2023! Please make plans to join us for an in-person weekend of events highlighting everything that makes the Wayland experience special. 

All alumni are invited to attend and help us celebrate the milestone reunions (classes ending in a “3” or a “8”).

Reunion Giving: As a class, we are asking you to pool your resources together to purchase a brick that will pay tribute to a favorite teacher or to honor your Wayland class. More information can be found by clicking HERE.
