PIERRE, S.Dl(KELO)- The South Dakota Board of Education Standards unanimously adopted new standards for Native American curriculum Monday morning.

That came over the objections of a number of Tribal members involved in education.

Sarah White of the Oglala Lakota Tribe said the planning discussions didn’t include a formal process of getting input from all nine tribes in the state.

White and other tribal members asked the Board to pause adopting new standards.

Education Secretary Joe Graves pressed for their adoption, calling it an open process that welcomed everyone who wanted to be involved.

The Board also adopted new standards for Computer Science, making South Dakota the first state to include Artificial Intelligence as part of its curriculum.
