SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) – Only 56% of students who graduated from a Sioux Falls high school in 2024 attended a postsecondary institution to continue their education.

The postsecondary report for the Sioux Falls School District was announced and enrollment to a college and technical school in the first year after graduation is at an eight-year low. However, the report says enrollment for 4-year and 2-year institutions “remained steady this past year.”
