Sparta High School has provided a great foundation for college. I feel they offered a great variety of classes to help figure out what I want to pursue in the future. Teachers were fair in the way they graded.
3/7/2021
Did the bare minimum to support the senior class of 2021. Allowed sports but not robotics or others clubs to meet in person? When the pandemic came, teachers did the BARE MINIMUM. Definitely not feeling ready for college as the quality of the education at sparta dropped significantly ever since covid.
3/21/2020
I'm so thankful for my high school years at Sparta High School. I've met amazing people and formed friendships that I will always cherish. I've also met teachers who are extremely intelligent and care deeply about their students. I will forever be thankful for my years as a Spartan!

The Sparta BOE currently spends all its time and financial resources on bogus culture war initiatives such as book banning. The schools are over crowded, resources are being removed, nurses and teachers are being cut or resigning and our children are paying the price. Their ineptitude ended up in a...

Both of my kids had a horrible experience at SHS. Very overrated. Most of the teachers & administrators are miserable. If your child is not in the chosen circle they will not flourish. The students leave a lot to be desired. A lot of shenanigans & bullying just swept under the rug. Don’t believe the...

We moved here from Virginia in 2013 and quickly found out that my daughter had some catching up to do in Sparta Middle School. She adapted and then exceled in all her studies. When she got to the high school it was an even better success in both academics and outside the classroom. I cannot tell you...

My children have all graduated from SHS, all have gotten into their #1 choice of colleges and all are having great success in their college careers. SHS is very competitive, and colleges see that by the class rankings. I think the kids who complained in previous comments didn't put in any effort but...
