Exciting news for this week! South Dakota Educators Rising is the student organization focused on growing South Dakota’s future educators—not just teachers, but also counselors, OT/PT professionals, school psychologists, social workers, bus drivers, food service staff, educational assistants, special education professionals, and future administrators.
A generous donor has pledged a financial gift to the organization if we can secure 500 unique gifts that day—no matter the size of the contribution. On Tuesday, December 2nd, they have a challenge to reach 500 unique gifts. Any amount helps—even $10. You can give either online or via Venmo, and gifts made today will still count toward the December 2nd goal.

Give via Venmo: @SDEdrising
Let’s help them hit 500 gifts and continue investing in the future of South Dakota’s schools! Thank you for your continued support!!
Autumn Fallis is excited to announce that she will be continuing her academic and athletic career at Dakota Wesleyan University, where she will compete in both Cross Country and Track & Field next year! Autumn has been an outstanding runner for the Pirates, earning appearances at six State Cross Country Meets and five State Track Meets.
Throughout her high school career, she has set multiple school records, including the 1600-meter run and the 3200-meter run. She was also a key member on the record-setting Medley Relay team.
Autumn’s coaches and teachers commend her dedication, leadership, and remarkable work ethic both on and off the track. We are all incredibly proud of all she has achieved as a Pirate.
We look forward to watching her grow and succeed as she takes her running talents to the next level! ❤️🖤❤️
