Local Sparta resident Adele Bradford Jones has created a very special journal to easily document your family history. The purpose of this book is to record your own life events and significant dates as they happen so you can enjoy recalling them in the future. Journal the first steps of your child, family trips, starting a new job or the thoughts or sayings of the loved ones around you. and your own life changes.
A portion of the proceeds from this book will go towards Sparta Twp Library.

All 20 public school districts within Kent ISD participate in the county Schools of Choice program. This program allows people to send their children to school, outside their resident district, without getting a superintendent's "release" or receiving the superintendent's "permission". The open enrollment for Schools of Choice closes at the end of the day on Friday, June 1 if all of our spaces are filled. If not, it is open until school starts. The only limit on movement between school districts is the space available in the desired district. Sparta has well over 200 students attending via the Schools of Choice program. Sparta has openings at every level, grades K-12. Once a student is enrolled through Schools of Choice, that student can remain in the district for his/her entire school career.
