GREEN BAY, Wis. (WFRV) – An elementary school is finding a way to reward students for academic achievements and positive behavior while also making reading more fun.
The King Elementary School on Dancing Dunes Drive unveiled a brand-new boo vending machine on Monday. The vending machine was made possible thanks to a grant from the Greater Green Bay Community Foundation and support from the Parent Teacher Organization.

School officials say students can earn books from the vending machine for academic achievements and positive behavior as they “follow the King School way.”
Our Students follow the King School way at King. being responsible, being respectful, attentive, and appreciative. As they do that, they will earn small tokens that they are able to put into the vending machine and earn a new book out of our vending machine to celebrate their accomplishments here at school. Whether that be literacy, whether it be behavior, or whatever goals they have here at school.
Jessica Cook, 4th Grade King Elementary School Teacher
The new vending machine debuted on Monday with teachers, students, and the principal coming together to celebrate this new and exciting way to inspire reading.
