Konstance Andrepont, back left, ELA Content Leader, and Timmy Jones, standing right, principal, stand with some of the students at North Crowley Elementary who have taken advantage of the Book Vending machine at the school. Jones said the students “have really taken” to the program. He explained that teachers distribute “Star Bucks” to the students as rewards and, those Bucks add up until the student can use them to “purchase” a token for a book in the machine. “It’s replaced candy as a reward,” Jones said. “That’s surprised a lot of us.”
