As I recall, it was just a quarter for the hot lunch in the 1960s.
A hot lunch was a quarter when I was in elementary school in the 60’s. That was before public schools became an industry, designed to extort as much money as possible from the citizenry, under the guise of educating students.


Every day on this side of the ground is a win.
