Our Mission
-
The Sparta Board of Education appreciates the value of a quality education. It is our mission to create a safe and healthy learning environment that will provide an opportunity for every child to achieve the NJ Core Content Curriculum Standards, at all grade levels, to be prepared for further education or workplace and develop into trustworthy, respectful, responsible, fair and caring citizens.
DISCLAIMER: Please be advised that emails or other communications sent to board members and/or other school officials may be subject to public disclosure under the New Jersey Open Public Records Act. Therefore, unless the topic involves a particular child or other confidential matter, community members should have no expectation of privacy or confidentiality in any communication that is sent to a board member or other school official. As a general rule, communications regarding specific student or personnel matters should be directed to the Administration and not to members of the Board. This is not to discourage you from contacting these individuals, but to ensure that you are on notice. If you have any questions, you should contact Ms. Joanne Black, the District’s Custodian of Records, at joanne.black@sparta.org.
