middle school students at the SDSU game

We could not be more grateful for the Promising Futures Fund and Steve Hildebrand for their commitment to our Sioux Falls School District students! 

This past weekend 260 students from George McGovern, Whittier, and Ben Reifel Middle Schools traveled to South Dakota State University for a small glimpse into the future. Ben Reifel Marching Band had the honor of joining the Pride of the Dakotas Marching Band from SDSU in performing the National Anthem. Students from the middle schools engaged in a panel discussion with SDSU, were exposed to the academics of SDSU through hands-on experiences, and attended a sold-out football game at the Dana J. Dykhouse Stadium. 

This coming weekend will be another opportunity as middle school students will travel to the University of South Dakota to experience campus life and attend a women’s volleyball game. These are experiences our students will never forget and ones that have the potential to shape the future of many of our students. We are incredibly thankful to have the Promising Futures Fund supporting our students and helping them envision their future!
