Action ST01048 Build Dakota Coordinator and Student Success Advisor Kelli Rogotzke presented an update and future goals on the Build Dakota Scholarship program at Southeast Technical College. (MRF #ST762). The discussion included a review of the increase in Build Dakota scholarship applications compared with previous years. It was emphasized that every Build Dakota scholar is supported by an industry partner. The Build Dakota participation cycle for employer partners was explained, along with the comprehensive and holistic support provided to scholars throughout their educational journey. Additionally, the 2026–2027 goals were outlined, focusing on strengthening relationships with employer partners and support for Build Dakota scholars. The presentation also included a recap of the Cohort 12 Build Dakota Signing Day.
Following general discussion, a motion was made by Dawn Marie Johnson and seconded by Elizabeth Duffy, four (4) votes “yes” on roll call to acknowledging the Reports of the President: Build Dakota Scholarship Program Update.
Action ST01049 Vice President of Technology and Operations Erik VanLaecken and Vice President of Academics, Fenecia Homan provided an overview of First Day Access at Southeast Technical College. (MRF#ST763). Southeast Technical College implemented the First Day Access (FDA) initiative to ensure students have access to required course materials on or before the first day of class. Through partnerships with publishers, the bookstore, and integration within the learning management system (LMS), digital course materials are automatically delivered to students, with costs charged through the student account and an opt-out option available.
The primary goal of First Day Access is to eliminate barriers that prevent students from obtaining textbooks and learning resources at the beginning of the semester, creating a more equitable and consistent learning experience for all students. Faculty retain full control over selecting course materials while gaining confidence that students can immediately engage in coursework and digital learning tools.
The initiative supports student success by improving day-one readiness, reducing upfront purchasing challenges and allowing students to use financial aid for eligible materials. It also aligns with Southeast Tech’s broader goals of affordability, equity, recruitment, retention, and operational efficiency.
Since implementation, campus adoption has grown significantly, demonstrating broad acceptance across academic programs. The framework continues to expand, and beginning in Fall 2026, Southeast Tech will be able to use the same process for physical course materials such as toolkits, course kits, and printed books.
Following general discussion, a motion was made by Elizabeth Duffy and seconded by Dawn Marie Johnson, four (4) votes “yes” on roll call acknowledging the First Day Access Overview Report.
Action ST01050 A motion was made by Marc Murren and seconded by Dawn Marie Johnson, four (4) votes “yes” on roll call, approving the second reading Sioux Falls School District/STC policies/regulations (MRF #ST764), as follows:
A. STC 535 – Acceptable Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Action ST01051 A motion was made by Dawn Marie Johnson and seconded by Elizabeth Duffy, four (4) votes “yes” on roll call, approving the second reading Sioux Falls School District/STC policies/regulations (MRF #ST765), as follows:

Action 39996
Becky Dorman, Senior Director Human Resources, presented the Fall 2026 Staffing Update report as follows (MRF #20039):
The Sioux Falls School District enters the 2026-27 school year with teacher hiring near completion and 145 new teachers preparing to welcome students into classrooms this fall. The District continues to attract a strong mix of experienced educators and those beginning their careers, with 41% of new teachers entering the profession for the first time. Nearly two-thirds have fewer than five years of teaching experience, 34% hold a master’s degree or higher, and nearly 40% previously served in the District in another role, reflecting the continued success of SFSD’s efforts to “grow our own”.
Recruitment efforts continue to draw candidates from across South Dakota and beyond. The applicant pool for this year remained strong with more than 1,200 candidates. Eighty-five percent of teacher contracts offered this hiring season were accepted despite a competitive employment market. Alternative certification continues to provide an important pathway for filling high-need teacher positions while expanding the educator pool.
Although teacher resignations have remained stable and below the elevated levels experienced following the pandemic, the SFSD continues to monitor workforce trends and strengthen efforts to recruit and retain exceptional employees. At the same time, Human Resources is actively filling remaining support staff vacancies and recruiting substitute employees (roughly 250) to ensure schools are fully prepared for the year ahead.
As the District welcomes new staff this fall, the HR team will continue investing in long-term staffing strategies through student teaching partnerships, teacher apprenticeship opportunities, alternative certification support, employee referrals, and professional development.
A motion was made by Marc Murren and seconded by Gail Swenson five (5) votes “yes” on roll call acknowledging the Fall 2026 Staffing Update report.

NOTICE OF APPLICATION
NO. 4817A-3 TO AMEND FUTURE USE PERMIT 4817-3
Notice is given that South Lincoln Rural Water System, 28647 472nd Avenue, Beresford SD 57004, has filed an application to amend Future Use Permit No. 4817-3 by expanding the future use area to include Section 12-T98N-R51W. Future Use Permit No. 4817-3 reserves 1,448 acre-feet from the Dakota Aquifer for future water development in Sections 13 thru 16, 21 thru 28, 33 thru 36; all in T98N-R51W; Sections 1 thru 4, 9 thru 16, 21 thru 28, 33 thru 36; all in T97N-R51W; Sections 1 thru 4, 9 thru 16, 21 thru 28, 33 thru 36; all in T96N-R51W; Sections 13 thru 36; all in T98N-R50W; Sections 1 thru 36; all in T97N-R50W; Sections 1 thru 27, W 1/2 Sections 30 and 31, Sections 34 thru 36; all in T96N-R50W; Sections 16 thru 21, 28 thru 36, S 1/2 Sections 26 and 27: all in T98N-R49W; Sections 1 thru 36; all in T97N-R49W; Sections 1 thru 36; all in T96N-R49W; S 1/2 Section 31-T98N-R48W; Sections 6, 14 thru 23, 26 thru 35; all in T97N-R48W; and Sections 2 thru 11, 14 thru 36; all in T96N-R48W. This description does not include areas in and adjacent to the cities of Canton and Beresford. The water is reserved for rural water system use for customers in Lincoln, Minnehaha, Turner, and Union Counties. The area being added (Section 12-T98N-R51W) is located in Lincoln County, approximately four miles southeast of Lennox SD.
Pursuant to SDCL 46-2A-2, the Chief Engineer recommends APPROVAL of Application No. 4817A-3 to expand the future use reservation area because 1) the future use area expansion will not increase the volume of water appropriated, 2) the amendment will not impair existing rights, 3) South Lincoln Rural Water System has demonstrated a reasonable need for the water reserved by Future Use Permit Nos. 4817-3 and 4817A-3, 4) that the proposed use is a beneficial use and 5) it is in the public interest within the regulatory authority of the Water Management Board. The Chief Engineer’s recommendation with qualifications, the application, and staff report are available at https://danr.sd.gov/public or contact Amanda Dewell for this information, or other information, at the Water Rights Program address provided below.
Any person interested in opposing this application or recommendation shall allege that the application, upon approval, will cause injury to the person that is unique from any injury suffered by the public in general. The injury must concern a matter either within the regulatory authority found in SDCL 46-2A-9 for approval or denial of the application, or other matter concerning the application within the regulatory authority of the board to act upon as defined by SDCL 46-2-9 and 46-2-11, or both. Any person meeting the petitioner requirements and wishing to be a party of record in a contested case hearing shall file a written petition to oppose the application with BOTH the applicant and Chief Engineer. A petition opposing the application shall be filed on a form provided by the Chief Engineer. The petition form is available online at https://danr.sd.gov/public or by contacting the Chief Engineer. The Chief Engineer’s address is “Water Rights Program, Foss Building, 523 E Capitol, Pierre SD 57501” or call (605) 773-3352. The applicant’s mailing address is given above. If contesting the Chief Engineer’s recommendation, the applicant shall also file a petition. A petition filed by either an interested person or the applicant must be filed by August 24, 2026.
The petition shall include a statement describing the unique injury upon approval of the application on the petitioner, the petitioner’s reasons for opposing the application, and the name and mailing address of the petitioner or the petitioner’s legal counsel, if legal counsel is obtained.
Any interested person may file a comment on the application with the Chief Engineer. The comment shall be filed on a form provided by the Chief Engineer and is available online at https://danr.sd.gov/public or by calling (605) 773-3352 or writing the Chief Engineer at the address provided above. Filing a comment does not make the commenter a party of record or a participant in any hearing that may be held. Any comment must be filed by August 24, 2026.
If the applicant does not contest the recommendation of the Chief Engineer and no petition to oppose the application is received, the Chief Engineer shall act on the application pursuant to the recommendation with no hearing held before the Water Management Board. If a petition opposing the application or contesting the recommendation is filed, then a hearing will be scheduled, and the Water Management Board will consider this application. Notice of the hearing will be given to the applicant and any person filing a petition.

SUMMONS
TO: JARVINE LIUR ECINOSG ONZALEZA, BOVE-NAMEDR ESPONDENT:
YOU ARE HEREBY SUMMONED and required to file an Answer to the VERIFIED PETITION To ESTABLISH PATERNITY, CUSTODY AND CHILD SUPPORT, a copy of which is herewith served upon you and is filed with the above-named Court, and to serve a copy of your Answer on the attorney for Petitioner, Dana Vuong of South Dakota Voices for Peace, at the address below, within thirty (30) days from the date of such service, not counting the day of service.
IF YOU FAIL TO DO SO, judgment by default may be rendered against you as requested in Petitioner’s VERIFIED PETITION To ESTABLISH PATERNITY, CUSTODY AND CHILD SUPPORT.
INITIAL CUSTODY ORDER
Pursuant to SDCL 25-4A-11 et. seq., upon service of this Summons the attached South Dakota Parenting Guidelines (Form UJS-03 2) become an order of this Court. Except as provided by SDCL 33-6-10, any minor child(ren) shall remain in the custody of the parent who has been the primary caregiver for the minor child(ren) for the majority of time in the twelve (12) months preceding the filing of this Summons and Petition to Establish Paternity, Custody, and Child Support, which in this action is the Petitioner, unless the parties otherwise agree. Pursuant to SDCL 25-4A-14, the guidelines are subject to any provisions established by a South Dakota Court in the following: a temporary or permanent domestic protection order, an order arising out of an abuse or neglect proceeding, a bond condition arising out of a criminal case, and an order in any other proceeding affecting child custody or support.
The attached guidelines shall apply and continue in effect unless the parties agree or the Court otherwise orders. The imposition of these standard guidelines creates no presumption as to who shall be awarded custody at any hearing. Pursuant to SDCL 25-4A 12, any agreement by the parties for visitation other than the standard guidelines must be in writing, signed by both parties, and filed with the Court. The agreed plan shall be approved by order of the Court and replace the standard guideline or any plan previously filed.
Pursuant to SDCL 25-4A-13, if either party objects to this initial order and implementation of the South Dakota Parenting Guidelines (Form UJS-302), the objecting party shall file an objection with the Clerk of Court. The Court shall order a hearing which shall be held not later than thirty (30) days after the date of the objection. The Court shall then issue its temporary custody and visitation order after considering the best interest of the child(ren) consistent with the provisions of SDCL 25-4-45.
WARNING TO PARTIES
IF EITHER PARTY VIOLATES ANY OF THESE PROVISIONS, THAT PARTY MAY BE FOUND TO BE IN CONTEMPT OF COURT AND MAY BE ORDERED TO PAY COSTS AND EXPENSES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE ATTORNEY FEES OF THE OTHER PARTY.
DATED this 28th day of July 2025.
