Social studies content standards up for review

The Department of Education is forming a committee to revise the state’s social studies content standards. Committee work is slated to begin in June.

South Dakota’s content standards are reviewed in cycles. Language arts and math recently were revised and approved, while science standards were opened for public comment.

A copy of the review cycle schedule as well as the current social studies standards can be found at www.state.sd.us/deca/OCTA/contentstandards/index.htm.
