Welcome back to Martin Luther School for the 2026-2027 school year! Join us for Back to School night where families can meet teachers, visit classrooms, drop off supplies, and get ready for an exciting year of learning at MLS. This is a great opportunity for new and returning families to connect with our Christ-centered school community at 2616 Connecticut Ave in Joplin, MO.
Back to School night at Martin Luther School is one of our favorite events of the year. Whether your child is starting kindergarten or returning for 8th grade, this evening is designed to help every family feel welcome and prepared for the school year ahead.
During Back to School night, you will have the chance to walk through your child’s classroom, meet their teachers, learn about the curriculum for the year, and ask any questions you may have. Teachers will share their plans for the year, including how they integrate faith and academics in every subject. You can also drop off school supplies and pick up important forms.
