Starting in grade three, South Dakota school districts must add lessons about human pregnancy and fetal development to their health curriculum, including showing students a high-definition ultrasound video (at least three minutes long) displaying fetal brain, heart, and organ development, plus a video showing fertilization and all stages of development in the womb. This is a new requirement that school boards must incorporate into their health classes using lessons, lectures, or digital presentations.
