When I started school in 1964 milk was 2 cents and it was in glass bottles. Almost everyone got chocolate milk because the plain milk sometimes froze but the chocolate didn't.
In 1971 they moved the 8th graders from the grade schools to 3 portables behind the high school. That was the first that we had cafeteria food. It was $0.45 for lunch, or we could buy a 5 lunch card for $2. Milk was $0.05 or a 20 milk card was $0.95.
