Little Cypress Intermediate (LCIS) received a grant from the Little Cypress-Mauriceville Education Foundation for a book vending machine. A ribbon cutting to unveil the new machine was held Jan. 27, with LCM Education Foundation Secretary Amberly Craft attending.
The vending machine requires tokens that students can earn by showing PRIDE (Positivity, Respect, Integrity, Determination, Encouragement) on campus. Tokens earned can be used toward a new book (one token equals one book).
The vending machine helps promote reading and hard work.
