Thanks to the Appomattox Literacy Intervention Project (ALIP), Appomattox Primary School (APS) now houses a book vending machine.

APS has a goal of collectively reading one million minutes by May. When students reach their grade level goal for reading, the students will get to visit the book vending machine and use a gold token to select a new book to take home.
