Detective Sgt. Joseph Whitehead says the boys sold the fake $10s and $20s in exchange for real cash in smaller denominations.
Officials say some of the money was used in the school cafeteria. Workers discovered the funny money and alerted school administrators, who called police.
The boys are charged with forgery and were released to their parents.
Their names have not been released because they are juveniles.
