It's that time of year again as students start getting ready to head back to school. This year, the Missouri Tax Free Weekend is August 1-3.
According to the Department of Revenue website:
By state law, the sales tax holiday begins on the first Friday in August and continues through the following Sunday. Certain back-to-school purchases, such as clothing, school supplies, computers, and other items as defined by the statute, are exempt from sales tax for this time period only.
The 2025 Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday begins at 12:01 a.m. on Friday, August 1, and runs through Sunday, August 3.
The 2025 Back-to-School Sales Tax Holiday exempts all state and local sales or use tax taxes during the exemption period on qualifying items. During prior years only state and some local sales and use taxes were exempt, Senate Bill 153 changed this by exempting all local sales and use tax on qualifying items.

CHS beautifully completed the football courtyard in the summer of 2013. As an extra feature, an outlined C is inlaid with red bricks in the cemented courtyard between the concession stand and the football field bleachers.
Specially engraved bricks may be designed and purchased to place in this outlined C. This is a unique way to "leave a lasting impression" or to honor people who have been associated with the Concordia R-2 School District. This is a chance for students, alumni, teachers, and patrons of the district to show their school spirit.
Over 60 bricks have already been ordered and installed in the courtyard. Take time to check out the courtyard!
Some ideas of information to have engraved on the bricks are names of students, names of families, years attended school, year graduated, sports and activities involved in, special memories, etc.
This project is a combination of site beautification, recognition, and community building which has become a main purpose of the Oriole Strong program at Concordia R-2. The attractiveness and permanence of the installed engraved brick courtyard will be enjoyed for years to come.
Please click here for the order form and additional information. You may also pick up order forms from Concordia High School, Concordia Elementary School, Concordia Bank, State Bank, and Concordia City Hall. For additional information, contact Theresa Christian, Superintendent, Concordia R-2 School District, 660-463-7235, Debra Johnson, Concordia High School Secretary, 660-463-2246, or Trindal Heineken, Concordia Elementary School Secretary, 660-463-2261.
