ANAHEIM
Schools Supt. Jan Billings showed off a $117,340 check received from Coca-Cola Co. for the Anaheim Prep Sports and Activities Foundation Thursday night.
The Anaheim Union High School District signed an exclusive contract with Coca-Cola a few months ago, giving Coca-Cola exclusive vending machine rights to all high school and junior high campuses.
