South Dakota schools must now include instruction on tribal history, culture, and government in their curriculum. This change amends the state's education requirements to ensure students learn about South Dakota's Native American tribes and their place in the state's past and present. The bill expands what schools are required to teach about the people and communities that are central to South Dakota's identity.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
