Plan for students to participate in SD Week of Work

The South Dakota Week of Work will take place April 11-15. Resources are available on the Schools page of the Week of Work website to help educators and 10th and 11th grade students prepare for an engaging week of local in-person activities aimed at exploring career opportunities.

Need help planning activities? Email sdweekofwork@state.sd.us for tips or to connect with local resources.

Live panel discussions with business and industry leaders from across the state will also be held virtually.

Monday, April 11, will be an opportunity to engage your students in classroom activities to help them make the most of the week. Need ideas? Check out the resources on the Week of Work website.

Tuesday through Thursday, April 12-14, students will be able to participate in live 40-minute panel discussions at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. CT. Panels will encompass six broad areas: agriculture, business, manufacturing and construction, public service, private sector service, and science. Each panel will feature representatives from a variety of related career clusters. Panel discussions will also be recorded and made available for later viewing. Keep an eye on the 2022 Schedule webpage as plans develop.

Videos from businesses spotlighting various careers within their respective organizations are also available via the 2022 Schedule webpage.

Does your school already have robust work-based learning programs in place? Kudos to you! Consider using this week to celebrate everything you have done to prepare students for their next steps.
