South Dakota school districts must now provide students starting in fifth grade with annual information about the state's age-of-consent laws and available legal and mental health resources, presented in an age-appropriate way. This is a new requirement that adds to existing school curriculum standards but does not change any existing laws—it only requires schools to educate students about those laws and direct them to support services.
