WILDCAT LUNCH
Thank you for another great year of Kiddos Wildcat Lunch!
Please note that the last week of Wildcat Lunch is next week ending on Friday, June 1st. If you had previously ordered lunch for your child on Friday, February 9th, which was a snow day, then there is one additional day of lunch that will be served on Monday, June 4th. Since the lunches were already processed and guaranteed, there is no way to accept new orders, cancellations or changes to the order and it will be delivered as ordered and confirmed. You can login to your Kiddos account to confirm if you had ordered the Yummy Bowl lunch. If you have any questions or need additional help, please contact Kiddos at support@kiddoscatering.com. Lunch ordering for the next school year will open in August.
