This bill cleans up outdated language regarding agency funds (now called custodial funds) of school districts. Position: The District takes no position on this bill. House Bill 1032 Introduced by: The Committee on Education at the request of the Department of Education Becky Dorman 367-7944 An Act to revise the authority of the Board of Education Standards to promulgate rules regarding certification. Impact: This bill outlines additional responsibilities of the South Dakota Board of Education relating to the certification of educational professionals, including establishment of definitions, procedures, and costs for the reinstatement of an invalid credential. Position: The District takes no position on this bill. House Bill 1042 Introduced by: The Committee on Appropriations at the request of the Bureau of Finance and Management Todd Vik 367-7909 An Act to revise the special education property tax levy for school districts and to revise the state aid to special education formula. Impact: This bill makes the three-year (becoming two-year) adjustment to the Special Education Formula allocations and adjusts the District special education levy up 6.8 cents ($0.068) per the Cutler- Gabriel amendment to maintain the state/local share of funding in the formula . Position: The District supports this bill. Sioux Falls School District 49-5 Page 1 Printed 2.7.2020 1:48:02 PM Positions are updated as POSITIONS ON 2020 PENDING LEGISLATION bills are able to be BY THE reviewed by the District. SIOUX FALLS SCHOOL DISTRICT House Bill 1043 Introduced by: The Committee on Appropriations at the request of the Bureau of Finance and Management Todd Vik 367-7909 An Act to revise the property tax levies for the general fund of school districts and to revise the state aid to education formula. Impact: This bill reduces the maximum general fund levy for home owners by 12.8 cents ($0.128) to $3.168 and commercial property by 26.5 cents ($0.265) to $6,556 per the Cutler-Gabriel amendment, freezes the General State Aid Target Teacher salary at the FY20 level, and adjusts the Overhead Rate up to 34.97 percent (34.97%), up from 33.6 percent (33.6%), as other funds that used to be outside the General State Aid Formula continue to be phased into the formula. Position: The District takes no position on this bill. The District supports the procedural changes in the bill (i.e. the Cutler-Gabriel and Overhead Rate adjustments) but opposes freezing the Target Teacher Salary at the FY20 rate when inflation is two percent (2%). It is anticipated that other bills addressing the inflationary increase in the Target Teacher Salary will be introduced and this bill will simply handle the procedural changes. House Bill 1104 Introduced by: Representative Frye-Mueller, Beal, Goodwin, Greenfield (Lana), Gross, Howard, Livermont, Mills, Peterson (Sue), Pischke, Randolph, Rasmussen, and Weis and Senators Jensen (Phil) and Russell Molly Satter 367-7933 An Act to limit the scope of medical information that may be required as a condition of participation in sanctioned activities. Impact: This bill restricts schools’ ability to require a medical release of information in order to participate in activities. Position: The District opposes this bill. This bill would limit the ability of schools to obtain a medical release of information to share and discuss the health needs of students participating in school activities. This would limit the ability of school staff to speak with medical providers regarding a student’s medical needs during activities. This would be especially concerning in emergency situations, when parents are not available, and school staff need to discuss health conditions and assist students needing medical care.

SIOUX FALLS SCHOOL DISTRICT House Bill 1115 Introduced by: Representatives Johns, Bartels, Bordeaux, Borglum, Chase, Duvall, Goodwin, Hammock, Johnson (David), Koth, Milstead, Otten (Herman), Peterson (Kent), Qualm, Rasmussen, Reimer, Rounds, Smith (Jamie), Steele, Willadsen, and Zikmund and Senators Rusch, Curd, Ewing, Kolbeck, Lake, Langer, Otten (Ernie), Partridge, Schoenfish, Soholt, Stalzer, and Steinhauer Casey Meile 367-7960 An Act to revise certain provisions related to athlete agent conduct. Impact: This bill would revise certain provisions related to athlete agent conduct with student athletes. Position: The District takes no position on this bill. House Bill 1122 Introduced by: Representatives Cwach and Hunhoff and Senator Kennedy Patti Lake-Torbert 367-4283 An Act to require child abuse or neglect investigations upon the filing of truancy complaints. Impact: This bill requires the Department of Social Services to investigate potential abuse or neglect with every truancy complaint filed within 30 days of receiving the complaint from the clerk of the circuit court. Position: The District supports this bill. House Bill 1134 Introduced by: Representative Bordeaux and Senator Kennedy Dr. James Nold 367-5384 An Act to permit certain acts at a school honoring or graduation ceremony. Impact: This bill would require schools to allow the singing of requested honor songs at the graduation ceremony and to allow students to wear beaded graduation caps to represent cultural significance. Position: The District opposes this bill. This legislation may cause graduation ceremonies to take multiple hours as honor songs can apply to numerous cultures we have represented in the Sioux Falls School District. The beaded cap is not known to be a cultural practice for high school graduation and could be considered to have cultural significance to every student. If this bill passes, it could significantly change graduation ceremonies in length and rental costs for the Sioux Falls School District.

SIOUX FALLS SCHOOL DISTRICT House Bill 1143 Introduced by: Representative Bordeaux and Senator Nesiba Dr. James Nold 367-5384 An Act to permit prohibit school districts from using school or athletic team names, mascots, or nicknames that are determined to be racially derogatory or discriminatory. Impact: This bill will prohibit school districts from using school or athletic team names, mascots, or nicknames that are determined to be racially derogatory or discriminatory. Position: The District opposes this bill. The bill provides no guidelines to make the determination as to what constitutes derogatory or discriminatory. House Bill 1152 Introduced by: Representatives Hammock, Beal, Brunner, Chaffee, Dennert, Deutsch, Finck, Goodwin, Gosch, Hansen, Jensen (Kevin), Johnson (Chris), Johnson (David), Marty, Mills, Mulally, Otten (Herman), Perry, Peterson (Sue), Pischke, Qualm, Randolph, Rasmussen, Steele, Wangsness, and Weis and Senators Stalzer, Greenfield (Brock), and Monroe Dr. James Nold 367-5384 An Act to provide financial assistance for school sentinel training. Impact: This bill would provide a state fund of $45,000 annually that can be accessed by schools to cover the costs of school district employees that complete the sentinel training program at a rate of $1,200 per employee. Position: The District opposes this bill. The money should be allocated to the General Fund Formula and schools can determine how best to utilize those dollars for safety and security purposes. House Bill 1156 Introduced by: Representative Frye-Mueller, Beal, Goodwin, Greenfield (Lana), Perry, Peterson (Sue), and Weis and Senators Jensen (Phil), Russell, and Stalzer Dr. James Nold 367-5384 An Act to prohibit the conduct of certain physical examinations or screenings on students in a school district without parental consent. Impact: This bill would prohibit physical examinations or screenings on students in school districts without parental consent. Position: The District opposes this bill. The Sioux Falls School District sees this bill as unnecessary and may have a significant negative impact on its schools. The Federal PPRA requires that local school districts create a policy on the administration of physical examinations or screenings that the school may administer to a student and provide notice and offer an opportunity to opt the student out of participation. This bill would go beyond the requirements of the federal law and seems to be unnecessary for the Sioux Falls School District. The Sioux Falls School District has a policy on physical examinations and screenings. We also have a process for parents or community members to address policy concerns if they feel changes are needed.

    2017 Directory Photo by Chad Coppess/travelsd.com MISSION: The South Dakota Rural Electric Association is devoted to unifying, pro- moting and protecting the interests of member electric cooperatives in South Dakota by providing leadership, training, communication, legislative representation and other member services. WE BELIEVE: That rural families in rural enterprises are a balancing force in the social and political structure that is vital to the stability, preservation and improvement of representative democratic government, of an efficient and economic productive system and of a satisfying world society; That the individually owned and operated farm is essential to the preserva- tion and enrichment of the private enterprise system; That people living in rural areas cannot successfully compete with other segments of economic structure in maintaining and improving the standard of living unless rural America does effectively organize its economic and social forces; That cooperative principles and techniques are the best ways and means for the rural people to continuously achieve these ends. Touchstone Energy® Four Core Values u Integrity u Innovation u Accountability u Commitment to Community STATEMENT OF PURPOSE The South Dakota Rural Electric Association, established in 1942, exists to serve our members. SDREA operates on the premise that, by pooling resources, members can receive services through SDREA more cost-effectively and ef- ficiently than they do on their own. We believe: 1. That we exist because of our members. We continually evaluate our ser- vices and funding to ensure they are meeting our members’ needs, while acknowledging that those needs vary and may be dictated by ongoing or emerging issues.
