Our Schools
The district benefits from its proximity to the University of South Dakota, which is located in Vermillion and provides valuable opportunities for students and staff. A five-member school board governs the district, supported by a superintendent and three building principals.

Our Vision

The Vermillion School District will build relationships that empower students to learn and optimize their potential.

The Vermillion School District believes that quality education begins with classroom leadership. Because of that belief, the district provides research-based practices and monitors student progress.

Vermillion Schools provide professional development for teachers to keep abreast of the most current and best methods in education. The district provides five in-service days, and encourages teachers to pursue opportunities that deepen content knowledge and strengthen classroom practices.
