PIERRE (AP) -- Gov. Dennis Daugaard says three grants to support students outside of school have been awarded.
The federal grants range from $50,000 to $150,000 a year. They are funded by the state Department of Education to fund 21st Century Community Learning Centers, which are intended to assist students from high-poverty and low-performing schools. The new recipients are: Mobridge-Pollock School District; YMCA of Rapid City, Valley View Elementary and Rapid Valley Elementary; and Washington Pavilion in Sioux Falls.
In addition, grants for six programs in the state have been renewed.
