SB127 establishes a minimum teacher salary for South Dakota public school teachers and revises how the state calculates average teacher compensation. The bill modifies existing education funding rules and adds new requirements to ensure teachers earn at least a specified minimum wage while updating the benchmarks used to evaluate teacher pay across the state.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
