l e a r n Desire to learn.
At the University of Sioux Falls, we understand that committed educators have a passion for learning, a desire to make a difference and very busy schedules. That’s why our coursework is designed around careers and family. Leaders of Rapid City Area Schools believe that highly effective teachers are the best resource we can provide our students. That’s why our literacy department has hosted this collaborative partnership with USF since 2004. This master’s degree in reading is open to educators in the RCAS and surrounding area.
