Anderson Elementary School took a shift at the McDonald’s on West Road from 4 to 7 p.m. Wednesday to raise money for the schools' parent teacher organization.

Lunch prices for Trenton Public Schools remain the same as last year.
Lunch prices at Trenton Public School will not change for the 2011-12 school year. Prices will not increase despite a provision of the federal government’s Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, signed by President Barack Obama last year, that requires a rate increase for some schools.

High school students will pay $3.00 for lunch and $1.50 for breakfast. Reduced lunch costs are the same for all schools. Adults who …
