Local restaurants come to the schools to sell their food/drinks. Some of those places are: Chick-Fil-A, Jamba Juice, and others such as sub sandwich places. Why have vending machines if the kids have such a variety to choose from.
Vending machines are when there is NOTHING else available.....I used to eat an APPLE out of a vending machine (it’s all there was!) after gymnastics when I was starving and waiting for a ride home....they DO serve their purposes
