There is definetly a good reason to buy soda, because it has caffeine and we need caffeine because we barely get any sleep at night.

screw the ppl that say take soda out of school... u know what our schools have taken soda out of school and life got worse. seriously.. now teachers use coke breaks as a reward to do our work but we have to wait until the last hour of school otherwise the machines are closed and locked.
mainly my point is there isnt anything wrong with soda unless u r a health freak.

they quit selling soda at our school years ago. Only during games do they sell it. All we have now is fruit juice, teat, vitamin water.

My school doesn't even sell soda. The school district made this wellness policy last year in response to the district finally realizing the obesity crisis. So in 7th grade I sold candy bars to raise money for the music department. Now I sell citrus. The school has gotten rid of soda as well, but ironically the school still sells fattening government food at lunch. Instead of having Phys Ed every other day throughout the 7 day rotation during one marking period, it's during two. But it's good, I like Phys Ed class.

I agree with the initiative 100% but I wish something could be done to improve parenting. Obviously the whole issue is ridiculously complex as it deals with human interaction but I strongly fear that as a society we are compromising to the extent of neglecting the role of parenting. The government and education establisments can only do so much on the macro plane without active engagement on the individual scene.

I read a book by this guy named Michael Pollin called In Defense Of Food and it's all about the evils of western eating and growing habits-- one of the WORST things for a human is high fructose corn syrup.  it's the equivalent of crack to the body.  Kids and teens shouldn't drink soda or even eat sugar-- It is not physically or mentally good for you!  I know I've cut it out.  I don't even drink fruit juice unless it's fresh squeezed anymore cause it's not that much better.

My high school removed pop machines after I graduated, though I suspect it had more to do with funding than morality.

Personally, I think kids should be able to buy a delicious tasty beverage if they so choose.
