Lastly, Senior Reagan Mayforth stated, “I think they're great, they have a good variety of snacks and drinks. I also love Poppi and now I can enjoy it at school!
LRHS Principal Dustin Dahlquist the new machines still meet federal nutrition guidelines.
“USDA Federal requirements require all food items sold to students during the school day to meet Smart Snack Requirements. In addition, The Florida Administrative code restricts sale of items to high school students until 30 minutes after the last lunch even if they meet Smart Snacks requirements,” he said.
