South Dakota sucks at budgeting for schools, too

Source: WalletHub

South Dakota not only hates nurses and teachers it's dead last in high school financial literacy and 50th in financial education performance and access. Teachers' wages in red states like South Dakota surf the bottom because Republicans are Balkanizing education amid a fight over ideological purity and in my home state academic freedom is under attack from a reactionary, Earth hating, self-dealing, authoritarian former governor. Kristi Noem is directly responsible for the closing of Presentation College where many of South Dakota's teachers and nurses were trained.
