With schools shuttered in March to help stem the spread of the coronavirus, the graduates — like those all over the country — missed out on end-of-year pomp including taking the stage to flip their tassels in honor of completion of high school.
In addition to a virtual senior awards night on May 20, school officials joined with the Village of Sparta to plan a graduation parade down the hill on Spartan Drive and along Division Street. Each student was invited to decorate a vehicle for the event.
Sparta High School’s graduation ceremony is planned for 6:30 p.m. on June 25, location and other specifics to be announced.
