As sangony said, this can be done through the node’s zPosition property.
For example, if the background node is called ‘bgNode’ and the sprite is ‘spriteNode’
bgNode.zPosition = 0;
spriteNode.zPosition = 1;
This will render the spriteNode over top of the bgNode. This is assuming they share the same parent node.
