I'd say it's okay as long as you make t clear to customers where the money is going.
As for pricing, I'd say about $.50 or $.75 for a cookie, more for giant cookies, about 1$ for a brownie, $1.25 to $1.50 for cake slices or big squares and stuff.
If you live in the right kind of neighborhood you could charge more....this is based on what I've seen at church and school bake sales where volunteers provide the sweets.
Bake sales don't usually have big profits though, unless all the baked good are donated by others. If you're doing all the baking, paying for the supplies and stuff, you'll probably just barely break even, unless you charge a lot.

I don't know if it's wrong neccessarily but some people might think it's kind of deceptive since people tend to associate bake sales with fundraisers. But if you're using the money for your school things you could say the profits go to that.

It's not wrong - provided you clear it first with the school (after all, you ARE using their premises and event).

As for pricing, don't be greedy - calculate your cost, and add a moderate percentage as your profit.

If the profits go to yourself; you need a license.

What? you are kidding me..that's not right to do that...people are counting on you to give that money to the cause you said you were going to give it to...the school...you are such a fake and a con artist..

remember..what goes around comes around..be careful..cheating people...sounds like you have no conscience...it's unethical what you are doing..are you going to teach this to your kids?
