529s help with K-12 expenses, too.

The MOST 529 Plan isn’t just for college—it can help cover current education costs¹ as well.

529 savings can be used for a wide range of K–12 expenses, including:

Tuition for private, public, or religious schools
Books, curriculum, and instructional materials
Online educational materials
Certain tutoring services
Standardized test fees like SAT, ACT, and AP
Dual-enrollment programs
Specialized educational therapies for students with disabilities

As of January 1, 2026, you can withdraw up to $20,000 per student per year tax-free for qualified K–12 expenses.

Missouri families receive a state income tax deduction on contributions to their MOST 529 Plan — so you can save on taxes now while paying for your child’s education today and planning for tomorrow.

It's a win-win.

¹Expenses for tuition and certain other expenses in connection with enrollment or attendance at an elementary or secondary public, private or religious school as determined under applicable state law, not to exceed $20,000 (effective beginning January 1, 2026) per student per year in the aggregate across all 529 Plans for such student. See the MOST 529 Program Description for details. Since different states have different tax provisions, if you or your beneﬁciary, as applicable, are not a Missouri taxpayer, the state(s) where you pay income tax may differ in its state income tax treatment of K-12 expenses. You should consult your own state’s tax laws or your tax advisor for more information on your state’s taxation of withdrawals for K-12 expenses.
