Providing South Dakotans of all ages with a strong educational background is one of the most critical things that we can do as a nation, and this effort will continue to require a constructive federal-state-local partnership.  South Dakota is fortunate to have many opportunities for post-secondary education ranging from career and technical education to advanced degree programs at Universities in many locations across the state, offering excellent instructional programming that helps students become productive members of the workforce and earn a competitive wage.
