The vending machines are back
With the loss of last year’s vending machines, a new one has been installed with an additional machine coming in two weeks
When the new school year started in August, numerous students were upset to see that the vending machines in the commons were gone.
There were many concerns, confusion, and questions about where they disappeared to during the summer.
As The Mav did some investigating, we discovered that no one really knew where they went.
“No one really knew what happened to them, the vendor who goes through the district came in and took them,” said Assistant Principal Alain Valette.
Valette also explained that he believed there were replacements coming but didn’t know exactly when or where they were coming from.
However, there is no need to worry because, as of today, MHS has installed one vending machine that will be joined with a second one within the next few weeks. You can find these under the D-Wing staircase where the previous vending machines lived.
In the vending machine, you can find chips including Cheetos, Doritos and Cheez-it’s, as well as fruit snacks and granola bars. There are also drinks such as V8, La Croix, water, Nesquik, and Body Armor.

Wow! I’m glad the vending machines are back!

The machine says both good for you and healthy vending. However, considering the Cheetos, Nesquik, Doritos, and cheez-its, the machine is neither good for you nor healthy

Finally. I spent at least over 250 dollars last year on the vending machine and 150 of that on cinnamon pop tarts alone. Thanks for bringing it back 🙂

This article was very interesting and I am a freshman here and I really like the vending machine because when I’m hungry after school it is very easy to get a snack.

I think that it’s strange that the vendor took the old machines, but it’s great that there are new ones!
