The Bible Bee is Tuesday, May 25, 2027 in the Immanuel Lutheran Church sanctuary. Students recite the Scripture they have committed to memory over the course of the school year — a fitting close to a year of learning God’s Word.
Memory work runs through the whole year at Martin Luther School, and the Bible Bee is where that quiet daily practice becomes something the whole school celebrates together. Every verse is displayed in the school hallway leading up to the event.
“I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.”
Psalm 119:11 (ESV)
The morning start time will be confirmed closer to the date. Graduation for our kindergarten and 8th grade students follows that same evening at 6:30 p.m. Families are warmly invited to both — see the 2026–27 school calendar for the full end-of-year schedule.
Martin Luther School serves Early Childhood through 8th grade at 2616 S Connecticut Ave in Joplin, Missouri, and worships with Immanuel Lutheran Church next door. Questions? Call the school office at (417) 624-1403.
