Officials with the Yankton School District are working through the details of their budget for next year.

Superintendent Wayne Kindle says the slowly rising enrollment trend is encouraging…..

As student numbers rise so does the financial aid from the state.

Kindle says that means they may draw less from the property tax opt out…..

Kindle says the enrollment increase also highlights the need for the proposed early childhood development center…

The board has approved plans that could ultimately lead to a new early childhood facility and closing two existing elementary schools.
