Yes because those things do not have a ounce of benefit within them. It will hurt the kids because they will become obese from drinking too much of soda, which contains too much sugar. From obesity, diabetes could be one of the many results. So, banning them would be a lot more beneficial to the kids.

Yes. Soft drinks obtain nearly all of their food energy in the form of refined cane sugar or corn syrup. While the USDA recommended daily allotment (RDA) of added sugars is 10 teaspoons for a 2,000-calorie diet, many soft drinks contain more than this amount. Unless fortified, it also contains little to no vitamins, minerals, fiber, protein, or other essential nutrients. Many soft drinks contain food additives such as food colouring, artificial flavouring, emulsifiers, and preservatives, which some consumers find objectionable. Some also argue that caffeine-containing soft drinks are not a valid source of dietary fluids because of the diuretic properties of caffeine; this is disputed.
Soft drinks may also displace other more nutritional food choices in people's diets, such as water, milk and fruit juice.
It cause obesity too and diabetes.. Due to the MSG or monosodium glutamate, which is used to enhance the sweetness of some soft drink beverages, could also play a role by stimulating appetite. so. yes.. it should be stop!!

No - kids will just buy them elsewhere and you are harming schools from getting needed revenue. Softdrinks are not illegal and should not be treated as such.
Good Luck!!!

I believe soft drinks should be banned in elemantary and high school. The reason being is that in females it will retain water weight and you will gain weight. Colleges are ok.
