We are thrilled to welcome you to Herrman Elementary, home to many of Sparta’s first through fourth grade students! Our new, state-of-the-art facility is designed to inspire and support our students, and we’re excited to see it come to life as a vibrant learning community.

At Herrman, we believe it’s our shared responsibility—along with families and the broader community—to create a place where every student can thrive. In our commitment to ensuring each child experiences success, we embrace a comprehensive, equitable, and inclusive approach to education. Through universal instruction, a positive school culture, and equity-driven practices, we aim to provide an environment where all learners—regardless of background or ability—feel valued, supported, and empowered to grow both academically and personally.

Our dedicated staff work tirelessly every day to create engaging and challenging learning experiences, ensuring that every student feels safe, supported, and successful. Simply put, the kids come first.
