Our School
Individual attention
Martin Luther Academy Students
Participate in Many Activities
Martin Luther Academy is the perfect size to allow students to participate in many activities. The student body is small enough to allow for each student to receive individual attention and be involved in whatever activities they choose. It is also large enough to offer some group activities and sports! Students at MLA are able to be involved in MANY activities.
Field Trips
Each class takes several field trips throughout the year. Some of the field trips they take include: The Coterie, The Nelson Atkins Museum, Pony Express Museum, School of Economics, American Royal, The Zoo, and many more, including a 7th and 8th grade Class Trip!
Sports
5th-8th grade students are invited to be a part of the MLA Athletics. Our Sports include: Soccer, Volleyball, Basketball, Running Club, Track, and Cross Country.
Academics
Not only are our students challenged academically each and every day, but students are also invited to challenge themselves through activities like Spelling Bee, Geography Bee, National Junior Honor Society and The Academic Bowl.
Service Activities
Each class at MLA is encouraged to do at least one service activity throughout the year. They also bring in Chapel money each week that goes toward a specific cause. This money is given away to help others.
