We could have a fundraiser every month, like the Buona Beef Lunches or Pizza lunches to help pay for everything.

We would only have to pay $6463 for the entire thing and it would take us 5 weeks if all our money back if everyone used it.
If half of the students at FPMS used the vending machine it would take 9 weeks before we start making profit.
If everyone used twice a day we would make it all back after 3 weeks to make it all back and we would have over 9,000 dollars.

-$1526 a week if everyone uses it.
-$763  if only half the kids use it.
-$5,663 for the vending machine that we prefer.
- According to Ms.McHarris it cost about $800 to fill up A La Carte so it would cost almost the same to fill up the vending machine.

Food in vending machines are normally filled with unhealthy things and they fear that this will bring obesity. But if A La Carte hasn't caused obesity in our school then a vending machines with the same type of rules shouldn't either. Their isn't a valid reason why we shouldn't have a vending machine other than trying to stop obesity and we have a way to solve it.

Banning machines from school can increase soda, and fast food use in schools because if their is a vending machine students would rely on that more.

1. We no longer need different companies to work with us. Because we already know how much work would be put in if we want different food companies to work with us and thanks to Michelle Obama that's even harder.
2. We know that we can't convert the A La Carte into more of a store than it already is because everything we want it's a problem to have or its not allowed.
3. When we talked to Mr.Pisano there is a possibility that this can be accomplished over the summer because they are planning things for next year right now. If we address this issue now and talk to the school board then we have a better possibility to get the changes we want.
4. I know that the first set of people we need to sell the idea too is Ms.Huff and Mr.Pisano. Because if they are on board then they can help us get the superintendent on board and the superintendent can work to make sure the whole district approves but we have to make sure that we follow all the state health regulations.
5. I'm not sure if the school will try and save money and use the old one because Mr.Pisano said he wasn't completely sure. But I know that school buys a lot of things from sams club so I checked and they have a lot of vending machines to choose from but they might try and choose a cheaper one but they all cost over $2,000. Considering that they are so expensive if the old vending machine isn't in bad shape they will probably use that one. https://www.samsclub.com/sams/drink-vending-machines-snack-vending-machines/2248.cp

1. How will we get companies to work with us?
2. How much would it cost to convert the A La Carte store into a real store?
3. How long would it take for them to make the change?
4. How many people do we have to go through to get the vending machines.
5. Do we need a new one or can we use the old one?

For this step, we walked around the school and looked at things that stick out to us. I chose to fix A La Carte but I learned there isn't much we can do. So the more effective thing would be putting in vending machines would be easier and it would give Ms.McHarris a break a few times a week. I think it's good because the school gets money either way. This stuck out to me because I am not the only one who wants better A La Carte snacks. Hopefully, this can be changed by next year but if not at least the approaching classes can enjoy the change.

So far I've talked to Ms.McHarris and she said that it was a lot of things we can't do because of the district. She can't do hot things because it has to be at least somewhat healthy and they go so fast that they she can't order weekly because she orders monthly.

How will we get these companies to work with us?
What do students want to have in the vending machines?
How much repair would the vending machines need?
How much would it cost to keep a vending machine filled all month? Could we make a profit? Where would the money go?
Who would be in charge of the vending machines?

I think that we should change the whole A la carte system. I think they should change it to a little store where students can buy a snack and they should sell things like Krazy Grapes, Nachos, Pizza, and stuff like that and they should sell everything for less $7.
