More students are eating healthfully, thanks to new school nutrition policies. But that has meant less vending machine and snack-shop revenue, which helps to pay for student activities. For any savvy high school student out there, I would start selling soft drinks for $1 to my classmates. You're assuming some risk but the reward outweighs it. You would make a few extra bucks and the most likely punishment would only be for the school to tell you to stop. I would research into various laws pertaining to the matter so that I had my ducks in a row, though. I have always wished I could go back to high school with the information I know now. I would say the majority of the time, when administration tells you you cannot do something, they're simply pulling it from thin air and if someone really wanted to back the school down, could. They rule by intimidation.
