\"edcation\"<\/a>The panel members\u2019 hope is the innovation sites could develop more effective ways for American Indian children to learn and graduate high school.<\/p>\n

The panel also called for an \u201cIndian Education For All\u201d plan involving native languages and history that would be used throughout South Dakota schools.
\nAnother recommendation is supporting recruitment and retention of high-quality teachers.
\nA fourth recommendation, made after some panel members had left, asks for creation of an Indian education commission representing the nine tribal governments.
\nRep. Sean Bordeaux, D-Mission, said the proposed commission would gather annually to grade state government\u2019s performance in educating Native American students.
\nGov. Dennis Daugaard on Feb. 2 created the Native American student achievement advisory council by executive order.
\nThe final report will be delivered to him and the Legislature by Dec. 1.
\nThe Bush Foundation provided assistance to the state Department of Education for the panel\u2019s series of five meetings held in Pierre, Rapid City, Mission, Flandreau and Pierre again.
\nMato Standing High, the state\u2019s Indian education director, said Tuesday a South Dakota Indian studies textbook would be helpful in achieving the Indian Education For All plan.
\nHe expressed confidence the innovation sites can succeed because there are public schools in South Dakota where different approaches are working for the general student populations.
\nPanel member David Archambault Sr. of Fort Yates, N.D., said three schools that receive the innovation grants could be successful and spur three more. The Standing Rock Sioux Reservation based at Fort Yates covers parts of both Dakotas.
\n\u201cThen you hope for a snowball effect,\u201d Archambault said. \u201cWe could show America the way to go. In South Dakota, we could show the way to go.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
