Dear Parent(s)/Guardian:

Concordia High school is pleased to be able to offer the BackSnack program to our students again this year. The BackSnack program sends food home with students over the weekend. The food is typically enough for one person for about two days. The amount of food could vary depending on our availability. It will come in a plastic bag that will be sent home with the student. Each child in your family who attends school in the Concordia R-2 school district is eligible to receive a BackSnack at the end of the day on Fridays. Please instruct your child to only open the food package at home, never at school, on the bus or walking home.

If you feel this program can benefit your family in any way, please participate. Registration will be confidential and we will fill the backpacks as discreetly as possible. If you would like to participate in the “BackSnack for Kids” program, please complete the information below (one form per family). If you have any questions, please feel free to call or email Mrs. Bredehoeft at the high school at 463-2246 or bbredeheoft@concordia.k12.mo.us. We are planning to start distribution on Friday, October 11.

Sincerely, Deanna Jurkowski, Principal

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 or Debra Johnson, Concordia High School Secretary, 660-463-2246.

Biden-Harris Administration Announces New School Meal Standards to Strengthen Child Nutrition. These standards will be implemented in the coming years. If you have questions, please contact the director of food service or your child's school nutrition team.

• #DYK Research shows that school meals are the most nutritious food source for American children—thanks in large part to the work of school nutrition professionals, parents, school meal partners, the food industry, and USDA to make school meals healthier over the past decade.
• New updates to school meals focus on giving kids the right balance of nutrients, while reducing the amounts of added sugars in menu items, especially at breakfast. Learn more about the gradual changes.
• #DYK: For the first time, added sugars will be limited in school meals nationwide. USDA heard concerns from parents and teachers about excessive amounts of added sugars in some foods, and research shows that these added sugars are common in typical school breakfast items. Learn more.
• The updates to school nutrition standards will provide children with less sugars and sodium, which are too high in the American diet, and continue to provide nutritious foods including fruits, veggies, and whole grains. Learn more.
• Current nutrition standards for whole grains are not changing! Schools will continue to offer students a variety of nutrient-rich whole grains and have the option to offer some enriched grains to meet students’ cultural and taste preferences. Learn more.
• We will continue to do everything we can to provide support that improves the nutritional quality of school meals across America. Learn about the financial support that USDA is providing to schools. #schoolmeals
• We are committed to promoting #NutritionSecurity for all kids, ensuring they have consistent access to nutritious foods and beverages that support their health and well-being. Learn more about the updated school nutrition standards. #schoolmeals
