​What is WorldQuest?

Academic WorldQuest is a national quiz competition that challenges high school students to become experts on a variety of topics concerning geography, history, and current events.

In order to qualify for nationals, teams have to win the regional competition. We not only achieved this goal, but Myers Park High School is the first public school to win the Regional Competition and, the only school in our region to win five times in a row!
