I remember milk was 2 cents when I started school and was up to a nickel when I graduated. Most kids bought chocolate milk because the white milk often had ice in it and was gross. Only the new building (North Dearborn High School) had a cafeteria, on Tuesdays the women's groups from the 3 local churches, the PTA, and the BVFD auxiliary took turns selling lunch.
