Tomorrow's Teachers

Choosing a career can be a daunting task for a teenager. That’s why the Sioux Falls School District started the Teacher Pathway program – to expose students to the education profession sooner. Students at all four high schools learn the ins and outs of teaching and work in another classroom to experience all the possibilities.

In November, Teacher Pathway students took a trip to the University of South Dakota’s School of Education. They learned about what it takes to specialize in elementary, middle, or high school teaching, heard from current students pursing a degree in education, met with college advisors and faculty, and experienced life on campus.

Roosevelt High School Teacher Gina Benz also met up with some of her former Teacher Pathway students who are now earning their education degrees! SFSD and USD are leading the way in developing future educators!

Early Childhood & Head Start now in a new location!

Services for the Sioux Falls School District’s earliest learners are now housed in a new location at 2205 N. Career Avenue – the former New Technology High School Building. Birth to Three, preschool screening, and Early Childhood/Head Start staff are pleased to have more space as they take over the first floor of the building on the campus of Southeast Technical College. The space is used for assessing child development and making recommendations for a student’s future preschool programming.

The Early Childhood Special Education Program provides an individualized approach to instruction for children birth to school age. The child must demonstrate a developmental delay or disability to be eligible. Developmental skills are pre-tested and post-tested to show gains while in the program. The program stresses

  • Concrete, manipulative, and sensory teaching methodologies, including movement.
  • A sequenced developmental approach to learning.
  • Home visits to develop activities in the home routine to support learning.
  • The belief that parents can help reinforce learning in the home and school, a parent/school partnership.

The second floor of the building will be used for additional SFSD meetings and training space and will be known as “The Learning Lab.”
