The Show-Me Conference is a Missouri athletic conference that sponsors several quizbowl competitions. It comprises nine smaller, rural school districts on either side of the Missouri River in central Missouri.

Elementary School

Somewhat unique is the conference's sponsorship of an elementary competition, known as Knowledge Bowl. Each grade - 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th - competes in its own separate double-elimination bracket to crown a grade-level winner each year. In 2015-2017, questions for the Knowledge Bowl were written by SAGES.
