South Dakota Wins when our children
are prepared to compete in a global, high-tech economy.

As we create an education system that focuses on achievement, we want to prepare our young people for jobs in the 21st Century workforce. By paying a premium for teachers in math and science, we will attract a great new generation of educators and demonstrate that these skills are the foundation for a strong economy.

We will also help our children learn about careers and make informed decisions, by expanding the SD MyLife web portal and increasing access to hands-on career cluster camps in engineering, IT, skilled trades, and other high-demand areas.

Finally, we will broaden the K-12 experience, giving a more personalized education to those who need remediation or are ready for advanced placement or college courses.
