Gov. Dennis Daugaard on Tuesday unveiled an education reform package
that would phase out tenure and pay $15 million in annual bonuses to
high-performing and hard-to-find teachers.
The
legislation, to be filed as a single bill later this week, eventually
would end the due process protections that make it expensive and
time-consuming to fire veteran teachers. Any teacher who is tenured as

it in the future.
The trade-off for teachers is $15 million in additional compensation paid directly from the state each year.
