Improving Native American education in South Dakota

This segment is from SDPB's monthly news program, South Dakota Focus, hosted by Jackie Hendry.

There's room for growth in Native American education in South Dakota. But in some districts, that growth is already underway. In the state's largest school district, a 20-year-old program has its first coordinator...and two passionate educators look forward to the future.

Jackie Hendry is a special correspondent with SDPB based in Sioux Falls. Her coverage interests include the many ways public policy impacts child welfare, elder care, health and education.
