4. Studies have shown that a little bit of sugar before tests helps improve scores.

Cons
-------
1. Obesity and related health concerns are a growing epidemic in our schools and society.
2. Litter can be a problem, and there is more waste for the environment.
3. Snacks could increase maintenance costs as well as damages to surfaces and property. If gum is allowed, it will be found on sidewalks, under tables/chairs, in hair, etc. It is difficult to remove.
4. More snacks eaten means more trips to the restroom.
5. Students would have to bring more money to school to enjoy the snacks, and that could cause problems such as losing money, theft, and bullying to get money.
6. The machines can be vandalized or otherwise damaged.
7. Students spilling drink, pouring drink on each other, or throwing food items could invite violence.
Many students find ways to cheat the vending machine. It is on TV and YouTube. The school buys them and then someone finds a way. This person spreads how to do it. More people follow the first person who did it. And the school ends up losing money. ---- In the developed world, more and more children are becoming obese. In fact, recent estimates suggest that as many as 20% of kids are overweight. On this basis, some people believe that having vending machines throughout school corridors encourages kids to consume more junk food, which could increase their chances of obesity and ill health in later life.
Vending machines benifit people because you don't have to give money to a cashier person, they can be cheaper than if you buy the object you are buying from a store, and it can be at a place where there is no store.
After practice of a sport, students will be able to get a drink quickly and stay hydrated.

Are soda machines good for schools?
IT depends on what you mean by "good." If by good you mean in terms of financial gain then yes, soda machines are good for schools. But there is also the other side to the coin in which people need to buy the soda in order for the school to make any money from it. And this is where the problem comes up. Students typically are the primary consumers for the sugary drinks, imagine that. This in the long run, can cause health problems for the students. So one could say soda machines are "good" for schools because who cares about the health of the students anyway, right? Certainly not the administration.
