And yet...despite all the doom and gloom about the junk food vending machines, without them we lose money that's bought computer labs, textbooks, and paid for student activities. Because our contract with Pepsi wasn't renewed this school year, we're already out $7,000 that we would have had in our budget for 2008-2009.
Sometimes dealing with the devil is profitable...especially when you're trying to pay for a child's education in Utah. Classrooms built for 25 students, packed with 39...we've gotta find extra money somewhere.
