Welcome to the first day of school at Martin Luther School for the 2026-2027 school year! We are excited to welcome new and returning students as classes begin on August 19, 2026. Martin Luther School serves early childhood through 8th grade at 2616 S Connecticut Ave in Joplin, MO.
The first day of school is always a special time at Martin Luther School. Students will meet their teachers, settle into their classrooms, and begin a new year of learning and growing together. Our Christ-centered approach to education means that from day one, every lesson is grounded in faith, character, and academic excellence.
Parents and families play an important role in making the first day of school a success. Please make sure your child has all required school supplies, completed enrollment forms, and is ready for a great year. If you attended Back to School night earlier in August, your child is already familiar with their classroom and teacher.
Martin Luther School has been kindling character, sparking joy, and igniting curiosity through the light of Christ since 1953. We look forward to another wonderful school year with your family. Visit our Admissions page if you are still considering MLS for the 2026-2027 year, or call 417-624-1403 with any questions.
