Welcome Military Families!
The Sparta Area School District is a rural school district and is also proud to be the home of Fort McCoy, the only U.S. Army installation in Wisconsin. The Sparta Area School Districts has the high honor of doing everything we can for our military children and families as well as ensuring their academic, emotional, and social success. We do this not only to support their educational and co-curricular growth in their current school year, but to help build their resilience knowing we are not the only school district in their educational path.
