South Dakota HB1158 revises provisions for students receiving alternative instruction. It mandates that the Department of Education annually designate two grade levels for writing skills assessments, aligning with state content standards. Students must take these assessments if they are enrolled in a school district, with exceptions for those partially enrolled. The bill also requires parents to notify the Department of Education or local district within 30 days of a child's transition, such as moving to a different district.
