SUMMARY: Mississippi’s 2024 sales tax holiday is happening earlier than usual this weekend, starting at 12:01 AM on Friday, July 12th, and running until midnight Sunday, July 14th. During this period, stores won’t collect sales tax on clothes, shoes, or school supplies priced under $100. Parents and teachers in Starkville are prepping for this event to save on school essentials, benefiting both families and students.

SUMMARY: Brillan Williams, a football player from Tupelo High School, has been ruled ineligible by the MHSAA for the 2024-2025 school year after transferring from Nettleton High School. The MHSAA determined that Williams’ move was not a bona fide transfer, stating it was purely for athletic reasons and occurred outside the transfer window. Tupelo High made a case for his eligibility since summer, but their efforts were unsuccessful. Williams had previously played as a quarterback at Nettleton High for two years.
