Todd Vik, Business Manager, presented the FY25 School District Budget, (see MRF #19668) as follows:
The School Board began its budget process in November 2024, at which time the Board adopted guidelines and a timeline for the budget process. Between December and February, nineteen sub-committees comprised of administration, professional and classified staff, and community people, developed program budgets which were then presented to the Budget Review Committee. The Budget Review Committee included two Board members and representation from the sub-committees. The Committee met on March 13 to develop budget recommendations for the full Board. Board work sessions to review the recommended budgets were held on March 26 and April 2.
General Fund Budget Changes from Prior Year
FY25 FY26 Change
Revenue $224.8M $232.3M $7.5M
Expense 231.8M -7.1M 235.5M
-3.2M 3.7M 3.9M
The final budget was heavily influenced by $3.1million dollars in budget cuts (relative to the cost of funding the current program next year) necessary because of the expiration of COVID funds in FY24. Over $10 million in ongoing expenditures were added to the general fund budget between FY20 and FY25. Those expenses that were borne by the Federal funds have been folded into the unrestricted general fund.
The General State Aid formula is increasing by 1.25 percent per student in FY26. Because over 80 percent of school district general fund expenditure budgets are salaries and benefits and nearly 90 percent of district discretionary revenues are derived from the State Aid formula, over time teacher salaries can only increase at the same rate as the formula increase. The Legislature passed a bill in 2024 which recognizes this fact; the bill requires school districts to increase average teacher salaries at the rate State Aid increases (ironically, since the beginning of the per pupil formula the average teacher salary has increased 91 percent vs a 78 percent increase in the formula). Because of a flexible floor in the employee bargaining units’ negotiated agreements, the agreed-upon increase for all groups is 1.875 percent, but the school board added an additional .5 percent to accommodate for inflation.
The five-year plan decreases the fund balance by $3.2 million in FY26 as the District works its way down the funding cliff caused by the loss of COVID dollars. The projected fund balance is 9.8 percent in FY30 after a low of 8.2 percent in FY27. The plan includes Capital Outlay transfers to the General Fund of $8.04 million beginning in FY26 and projected efficiencies of 1.5 percent in FY27, 1.0 percent in FY28, and 0.5 percent thereafter.
There is no change in the budget since tentative approval of the budget on April 14.
In summary, the total Tax-Supported Budget (General, Special Education, Capital Outlay, and Bond Redemption funds) is $342.8 million. For the District’s homeowners, the school levy is projected to decrease by 17 cents in 2026. The average school property tax bill for a typical house in the Sioux Falls School District is expected to drop 3.3 percent next year (after a 3.1% decrease in 2025) and will average a 2.5 percent annual increase over the last 26 years.
A motion was made by Marc Murren and seconded by Gail Swenson, five (5) votes “yes” on roll call, adopting the FY26 Budget of the Sioux Falls School District 49-5 (see MRF #19668 and Action 39583, adopted 7/8/2024) and certifying the levies to the Minnehaha and Lincoln County Auditors, as follows:
Action 39793
Elizabeth Herrboldt, Director of Federal Programs and World Language, presented the Federal Consolidated Application Report, (See MRF#19669) as follows:
The Sioux Falls School District’s (SFSD) Federal Consolidated Application was submitted to the South Dakota Department of Education (SDDOE) as of Monday, July 14, 2025 following a two-week granted extension. This application describes how SFSD will meet the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requirements and how the District will use funds allocated under Title I Parts A and D, Title II, and Title IV.
Title I Part A funds are used to improve student outcomes in schools with the highest poverty rates. Examples of how SFSD uses these funds include: smaller class sizes at K and 1st grade, reading interventions, summer school, social workers, and professional development.
Title I Part D funds prevention strategies for at-risk youth. The District employs a reading and math teacher, transition coordinator, and dropout prevention coordinator with these funds.
Title II Part A supports District efforts to ensure highly-effective teachers in engaging learning environments. Funding is used for instructional coaches, professional development for behavior management, and Teacher Pathway instructors at each high school.
Title IV Part A ensures a well-rounded education, improved school conditions for learning, and enhanced technology for academic achievement and digital literacy. SFSD uses these funds for reading support, counselors at high-need schools, and various technology expenses.
The U.S. Department of Education paused allocations for several federally funded grants. SFSD is monitoring these for changes.
A motion was made by Dawn Marie Johnson and seconded by Gail Swenson, five (5) votes “yes” on roll call, acknowledging the report on the Consolidated Application.
Action 39794
Becky Dorman, Senior Director of Human Resources, presented a request for application waivers from South Dakota Administrative Rules in accordance with ARSD 24:43:08, (see MRF#19670) as follows:
The Sioux Falls School District is requesting to apply for waivers from the following South Dakota Administrative Rules:
24:43:02:08. Plan of Intent
Plan of Intent: Any district employing teachers or administrators who are non-certified or are serving outside of their current certification shall have on file with the Department of Education a plan of intent stating how the district intends to ensure that all teachers and administrators are serving on a valid certificate in their certified areas. The plan of intent must be fulfilled in one calendar year. The district may request a one-time, one-year extension to the duration of the plan of intent to be granted at the culmination of the first year of the plan of intent cycle.
The Sioux Falls School District employs the following educators in need of the Plan of Intent waiver to be granted an additional year to complete Plan of Intent requirements:

There is currently $4,622,000 in General Fund opt out capacity that has not yet been levied and projections indicate potential opt out levy needs in 2027 and 2028 of $5,100,000.

RESOLUTION MC25-16
RESOLUTION FOR OPT OUT
THE MINNEHAHA COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS does state that the above said board is unable to operate under the property tax limitation measure currently in statute. We therefore OPT OUT of such tax limitation in the amount of $1.5 million starting with calendar year 2025 taxes payable in the calendar year 2026. This opt-out will be for 25 years, which will be through taxes payable in the calendar year 2050. This action has been taken by the Board and approved by at least a two-thirds vote of the Board.
This decision may be referred to a vote of the people upon a petition signed by at least five percent of the registered voters of the County and filed with the governing body within twenty days of the first publication of this decision.
Unless this action is referred to a vote of the people and reversed by such vote, this resolution authorizes the county auditor to spread an excess levy to raise tax dollars in the above stated amount.
Dated this 15th day of July, 2025.
