WeGo Meals

Earlier this week, the following announcement went out to students and was posted on our website under "Student Announcements".

"Welcome back Wildcats! Now that you’ve gotten to experience the variety of meals that Quest has to offer, we’ll begin implementing our WeGo Meals. Over the last two weeks, Quest has established your favorite meals. Those favorites will continue to be offered as the WILDCAT Specials.
Starting September 1st, our free WeGo meals will be listed as the WILDCAT Specials of the day available in each serving line. Additionally, there will be other meal selections and ala carte items available for purchase including chips, drinks and more!"

We do apologize for any confusion this may have caused our students and families. We will be offering the choice between 2 free entrees, along with vegetables, fruit and milk every day. These menu items will rotate throughout the weeks. Other entrees and items will be offered for purchase. Please review the menu linked above for daily free meal choices.
