South Dakota Focus: COVID-19 Impact on Education in SD

Thursday, Mar. 26: COIVD19's impact on schools and learning in SD.

South Dakota FOCUS

SDPB1 and SDPB.org/live: Thursday, March 26, 8pm (7 MT)

SDPB addresses the impact of COVID-19 on schools and learning. With schools shut down across the country and in South Dakota, parents are navigating their children’s educational needs. While some parents are quarantined at home with their families, others who must work outside the home have little choice but to leave kids to educate and care-take themselves. Educators and administrators address concerns from parents, provide tips and resources for homeschooling, and discuss educational requirements and standardized testing as South Dakotans continue to adjust life during COVID-19.
