Vending Machines in school Yes or No and why or why NOT? -

For a debate

There are pros and cons to both sides of this issue. (Obviously, or it wouldn t be able to be debated)I think having food or drinks in a vending machine could be distracting for students in a middle school or high school. When I was in high school, we had machines for drinks, but not for food. I think this worked out well, as drinks in class are generally less distracting than food would be. There are some teachers that would prefer not to have any food or drink in their classroom, so having this available for purchase all day would be more of an issue for them.I like the idea of having vending machines for drinks, although if there are machines selling pop brought in, there should also be bottles of water and juice being sold so there are healthier alternatives. (Although not all juice is inherently healthy either, but that s another issue)At my school, we had a store that was run by a teacher and two students at a time that sold snack foods. It was only open during lunch time though, so there was a limited window of time each day that the candy, chips, gum, and other snacks were sold. While some students visited this everyday and bought their entire lunch here, most students would stop by for a sucker or a candy bar as a treat once in a while. I think this was a good idea for our school, as it allowed for some foods to be provided if students wanted them, but the items could only be purchased during lunch time. (Yes, we would have it in our bags for the afternoon or could save it for a later class, but it was not as distracting as having to wait in line during the break between classes to get something from a machine.
