South Dakota is creating a new "Building Opportunity Through Out-of-School Time Program" that provides grants to schools and nonprofits running after-school, before-school, or summer programs focused on academics, career readiness, and preventing risky behaviors like substance abuse and truancy. The bill establishes a dedicated fund to pay for the program through a new fee and state appropriations. This creates a new state initiative to support youth programming outside regular school hours.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
