They need to stop selling pops in the schools here in Saginaw. It's funny to me that the same children who don't have money to buy a needed novel for their English class will scrape up every dime they can find for the pop machine. I wonder if these kids would be so quick to go to the pop machine if they knew that the $$ from the pop machine sales went to athletics and not other school activities? I quit buying pops out of the machines and started bringing flavored water when I found that out. The school board here is cutting out field trips and not hiring new staff and not upgrading the computers in order to save money but is not willing to get rid of the pop machines and slash the athletic budget, either.
