APPENDIX A- Proposed Constitutional Change, Submitted by SDHSAA Board of Directors

TRANSFERS TO CHEYENNE-EAGLE BUTTE, CROW CREEK, FLANDREAU INDIAN, MARTY INDIAN, PINE RIDGE, ST. FRANCIS, TODD COUNTY Addendum to Chapter II, Part I, Section I (found of p.23 of Constitution and Bylaws) Adopted by the Board of Directors on June 8, 2005

A student who transfers to a twenty-four (24) hour B.I.A./O.I.E.P.(Office of Institutional Education Programs) Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) boarding school which is partially or wholly funded by ISEP (Indian Student Equalization Program): Cheyenne-Eagle Butte, Crow Creek, Flandreau Indian, Marty Indian, Pine Ridge, St. Francis or Todd County High School (students residing in Sicangu Owayawa Oti), from an SDHSAA non-member school, would be eligible for participation after ten (10) school days provided they meet all eligibility requirements as per SDHSAA Constitution and Bylaws, Part IV-Student Eligibility for Fine Arts and Athletic Participation, pages 1415. This would apply to the initial transfer only. Rationale:

•

In both changes above, this is simply clarifying language o B.I.A/O.I.E.P is now known as Bureau of Indian Education (BIE). This change strikes out B.I.A/O.I.E.P. and changes it to Bureau of Indian Education (BIE). o Regarding Sicangu Owayawa Oti residence hall, this is a residential facility used by both St. Francis and Todd County students. The proposed language adds clarification that this statute applies only to Todd County Students who reside in the Sicangu Owayawa Oti facility. A student transferring to Todd County but not living in the Sicangu Owayawa Oti residence facility would not be included in this statute.

Chairman Morford recognized Mr. Troy Terronez, Watertown High School, who placed the name of Mr. Steve Moore, Watertown High School, in nomination. Introduction of one (1) proposed constitutional amendments as submitted by SDHSAA Board of Directors Chairman Morford spoke in favor of the amendment as published in the 2017 Annual Meeting Bulletin. As per the SDHSAA Constitution, Article X, page 12, the constitution may be amended in two ways: SECTION 1. METHOD OF PROPOSING. Amendments to this Constitution or any set of Bylaws hereinafter included may be proposed by the Board of Directors, or by member schools through presentation of a petition signed by the administrators of thirty or more member schools. Proposed amendments must be submitted in writing to the Executive Director thirty days or more prior to the Annual Meeting or Special Meeting in order to be considered at that meeting. Amend Chapter II – Bylaws for Athletics, Part I Further Eligibility Requirements for Athletic Contests, Section 1, Sub-Section N (additions in BOLD, deletions in strikethrough, other editorial changes and renumbering not listed): TRANSFER OF ATHLETIC ELIGIBILITY FOR SDHSAA OPEN ENROLLMENT STUDENTS. Any student who transfers from a member high school to another member high school shall be eligible to participate in interscholastic athletics provided such student has met the standards for SDHSAA athletic open enrollment as defined in the following paragraph: SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students transferring from one high school to another must have the school (s)he leaves file a transcript of credits with the principal of the school to which (s)he is transferring. Until such transcript is filed the student is ineligible. In order for SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students to be eligible immediately for participation in interscholastic athletics of the SDHSAA, the student must both: (1) be enrolled on the first day of the school year at the school they are open enrolling to, and, (2) have not competed in any SDHSAA sanctioned athletic contest at the school they are open enrolling from during that school year’s athletic season. Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. For students who do not meet these criteria enrolled on the first day of the school year at the school they are open enrolling to: a. SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students enrolled in a SDHSAA member school which operates a five (5) day week shall become eligible on the forty-sixth (46th) scheduled day of school provided all other SDHSAA regulations are met. Member schools must have the

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 9

necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. b. SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students enrolled in an SDHSAA member school which operates a four (4) day week shall become eligible on the thirty-seventh (37th) scheduled day of school provided all other SDHSAA regulations are met. Revised 2005 Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. 3.

In addition, all such students must meet all other eligibility requirements.

4.

For purposes of this Bylaw “standards for open enrollment” shall mean such standards authorized by a public school board as required by SDCL §13-28-40 through and including SDCL §13-28-47. In the case of a non-public school, such comparable standards and time-lines, as set forth in SDCL §1328-40 through and including SDCL §13-28-47 would be applicable to such school.

5.

In such cases, eligibility is applicable to the initial SDHSAA athletic open enrollment transfer only. Any subsequent SDHSAA athletic open enrollment transfer to another high school shall render the student ineligible for one year with one exception. The exception: In the event a student returns to: (1) his/her former school; or (2) where his/her parents reside, the student will not be eligible until the beginning of the following school year.

NOTE: The open enrollment statutes SDCL §13-28-40 through §13-18-47 do not change the Bylaws of the SDHSAA. Thus Chapter II, Part I, Section 1, Sub-Sections (a) and (f) apply to sports eligibility for all open enrollment students. • Once enrolled in a nonresident district or non-assigned school, the student may remain enrolled and is not required to resubmit annual applications. • Students who open enroll from one school in a cooperative to the other school(s) in the same cooperative will not have to sit out the 45/36 school day waiting period providing all school(s) in the cooperative coop in all athletic activities in the same gender. Minutes-November 25, 2002 NOTE: See State Statutes section of Athletic Handbook for Open Enrollment Options between North Dakota and Minnesota. Rationale: 1) Once a student reports to practice, and participates in a contest, team membership has been established. 2) Once team membership has been established, any student who gains their athletic eligibility through athletic open enrollment, should be required to meet the 45/36 scheduled days of school period of ineligibility, which this rule change enforces for all grade 9-12 students equitably. 3) Regardless of the scheduled fall academic start date of member schools, a student should not be able to take advantage of a given situation to represent more than one member school during that sport season. 4) This change closes a loophole that presently exists where an incoming freshman could participate in multiple practices and games for a given team in the fall, and then choose to enroll elsewhere without completing an athletic open enrollment that any other student would otherwise have to complete prior to the start of the academic year. Hearing no further discussion, Chairman Morford explained the following voting procedure: Explanation of voting procedure and time frame to be followed: A. The ballot pertaining to the Board of Directors positions will be mailed to the superintendent of each member school within ten days following the Annual Meeting, April 28, 2017.

Annual Meeting Bulletin

B. Deadline for return of all ballots is Tuesday, May 30, 2017. C. In order to be elected to the Board of Directors, a candidate must receive a majority of the votes cast in the election. If none of the candidates receive a majority, a runoff election will be held immediately following May 30, 2017, between the top two vote getters. D. The ballots pertaining to the proposed constitutional amendment will be mailed to the superintendent of each member school within ten days following the Annual Meeting, April 28, 2017. E. Deadline for return of all ballots is Tuesday, May 30, 2017. F. For a constitutional amendment to pass, it must receive a sixty percent favorable vote of the Association members who cast a ballot. Past members of the SDHSAA Board of Directors and retiring administrators recognized.

APPENDIX A

MISSION STATEMENT The South Dakota High School Activities Association will serve member schools by providing leadership in the development, supervision, and conduct of interscholastic activities which enrich the educational experiences of high school students. The SDHSAA is committed to the ideals that will provide equitable participation opportunities and positive recognition to students, while working cooperatively with all schools to enhance the achievement of desired educational goals. We believe: • The SDHSAA is the recognized state authority on interscholastic activity programs. • Interscholastic activity programs enrich each student’s educational experience. • Participation in education-based activity programs promotes student academic achievement. • Student participation in interscholastic activity programs is a privilege. • Interscholastic participation develops good citizenship, healthy lifestyles, and strengthens cultural diversity. • Interscholastic activity programs foster involvement of a diverse population. • Interscholastic activity programs promote positive school/community relations. • The SDHSAA, in conjunction with the NFHS, is the pre-eminent authority on competition rules for interscholastic activity programs. • National competition rules promote fair play and minimize risks for student participants. • Properly trained administrators/coaches/directors promote the educational mission of the interscholastic experience. • Properly trained officials/judges enhance interscholastic competition. • In earning public trust through administering honest and dependable activities programs. • In providing South Dakota students with quality educationally based activities programs. • In providing programming that provides balanced coverage of both athletic and fine arts programs. • The SDHSAA and its member schools value the following: o equity, fairness and justice, o activities which support the academic mission of schools, o fair play and honorable competition, o activities which support healthy lifestyles, and o treating people with dignity and respect. Numerous studies have been conducted which provide empirical evidence to the value of co-curricular programs that are supported by our member schools:  Activities Support The Academic Mission Of Schools. Activities are not a diversion but rather an extension of a good educational program. Students who participate in activity programs tend to have higher grade-point averages, better attendance records, lower dropout rates and fewer discipline problems than students generally.  Activities Are Inherently Educational. Activity programs provide valuable lessons for practical situations—teamwork, sportsmanship, winning and losing and hard work. Through participation in activity programs, students learn self-discipline, build self-confidence and develop skills to

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 21

handle competitive situations. These are qualities the public expects schools to produce in students so that they become responsible adults and productive citizens.  Activities Foster Success In Later Life. Participation in high school activities is often a predictor of later success—in college, a career, and becoming a contributing member of society. Did you know. . . • School activities are not a diversion, but rather an extension of a good educational program. • Students who participate in activity programs tend to have higher grade-point averages, better attendance records, lower dropout rates and fewer discipline problems. • Activity programs provide valuable lessons for practical situations—teamwork, sportsmanship, winning and losing and hard work. Through participation in activity programs, students learn self-discipline, build self-confidence, and develop skills to handle competitive situations. • Participation in high school activities is likely a predictor of later success. • Of the 60 students listed in USA Today’s All-USA High School Academic First, Second and Third Teams and the 51 who earned honorable mention, 75 percent were involved in sports, speech, music, or debate. • A study by the Search Institute indicates that co-curricular activities play a central role in students’ healthy development. • School-age children and teens who are unsupervised during the hours after school are far more likely to use alcohol, drugs and tobacco, engage in criminal and other high-risk behaviors, receive poor grades, and drop out of school than those children who have the opportunity to benefit from constructive activities supervised by responsible adults. • A nationwide study by the Women’s Sport Foundation indicated that athletes do better in the classroom, are more involved in school activity programs and stay involved in the community after graduation. • According to a study conducted by Indiana University, students participating in a number of activities not only achieve better academically, but also express greater satisfaction with the total high school experience than students who do not participate. • Individuals at the executive vice-president level or above in 75 Fortune 500 companies indicated that 95 percent of those corporate executives participated in sports during high school. In addition, 54 percent were involved in student government, 43 percent in the National Honor Society, 37 percent in music, 35 percent in scouts, and 18 percent in the school’s publication. • The American College Testing Service compared the value of four factors in predicting success after high school. The one yardstick that could be used to predict later success in life was achievement in school activities.

A board member will not have any direct pecuniary interest in a contract which could be affected by a decision of the South Dakota High School Activities Association. A direct pecuniary interest is any decision by a SDHSAA board member that inures to the individual’s private gain or loss or to the private gain or loss of a business associate. Conflicts of interest would include but are not limited to direct financial interest in a company or product furnishing any labor, services, materials, supplies or equipment. If a member of the SDHSAA Board of Directors should have or develop a conflict of interest, such person shall immediately identify the conflict and remove himself or herself from any discussion or action involving the matter in conflict unless the conflict is waived by 2/3 of the elected members of the Board.

APPENDIX C Amend Chapter II – Bylaws for Athletics, Part I Further Eligibility Requirements for Athletic Contests, Section 1, Sub-Section N (additions in BOLD, deletions in strikethrough, other editorial changes and renumbering not listed): TRANSFER OF ATHLETIC ELIGIBILITY FOR SDHSAA OPEN ENROLLMENT STUDENTS. Any student who transfers from a member high school to another member high school shall be eligible to participate in interscholastic athletics provided such student has met the standards for SDHSAA athletic open enrollment as defined in the following paragraph: 1.

SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students transferring from one high school to another must have the school (s)he leaves file a transcript of credits with the principal of the school to which (s)he is transferring. Until such transcript is filed the student is ineligible. In order for SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students to be eligible immediately for participation in interscholastic athletics of the SDHSAA, the student must have been both: (1) be enrolled on the first day of the school year at the school they are open enrolling to, and, (2) have not competed in any SDHSAA-Sanctioned athletic contest at the school they are open enrolling from during that school year’s athletic season. Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible.

2. For students who do not meet these criteria enrolled on the first day of the school year at the school they are open enrolling to: a. SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students enrolled in a SDHSAA member school which operates a five (5) day week shall become eligible on the forty-sixth (46th) scheduled day of school provided all other SDHSAA regulations are met. Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. b. SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students enrolled in an SDHSAA member school which operates a four (4) day week shall become eligible on the thirty-seventh (37th) scheduled day of school provided all other SDHSAA regulations are met. Revised 2005 Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. 3.

In addition, all such students must meet all other eligibility requirements.

4.

For purposes of this Bylaw “standards for open enrollment” shall mean such standards authorized by a public school board as required by SDCL §13-28-40 through and including SDCL §13-28-47. In the case of a non-public school, such comparable standards and time-lines, as set forth in SDCL §1328-40 through and including SDCL §13-28-47 would be applicable to such school.

5.

In such cases, eligibility is applicable to the initial SDHSAA athletic open enrollment transfer only. Any subsequent SDHSAA athletic open enrollment transfer to another high school shall render the student ineligible for one year with one exception. The exception: In the event a student returns to:

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 41

(1) his/her former school; or (2) where his/her parents reside, the student will not be eligible until the beginning of the following school year. NOTE: The open enrollment statutes SDCL §13-28-40 through §13-18-47 do not change the Bylaws of the SDHSAA. Thus Chapter II, Part I, Section 1, Sub-Sections (a) and (f) apply to sports eligibility for all open enrollment students. • Once enrolled in a nonresident district or non-assigned school, the student may remain enrolled and is not required to resubmit annual applications. • Students who open enroll from one school in a cooperative to the other school(s) in the same cooperative will not have to sit out the 45/36 school day waiting period providing all school (s) in the cooperative coop in all athletic activities in the same gender. Minutes-November 25, 2002 NOTE: See State Statutes section of Athletic Handbook for Open Enrollment Options between North Dakota and Minnesota.

APPENDIX D SDSSA Committee Report for SDHSAA SDHSAA Executive Board Meeting November 2, 2016 In 2014, the SDSSA established a committee to meet with SDHSAA staff for the purpose of improving communication between the two associations and to convey specific concerns of the SDSSA membership. In September of 2014, the committee members presented the SDHSAA staff with a list of 14 concerns or recommendations. The SDHSAA staff responded to each of these items. At this time, the SDSSA committee would like to briefly identify the positives that came out of that initial meeting, items that need follow-up, and new concerns that may have developed in the last two years. The committee recognizes and appreciates changes that were implemented on items 1 – 3, 7, 11 and 14 of the previous report. 1. Implementation of a first and second reading of any policy or by-law changes that would directly affect member schools. 2. Adherence to open meeting laws and limiting agenda changes not specific to issues dealing with individual students, so that member schools have time to review proposed changes prior to Board action. 3. Implementation of live-streaming of SDHSAA Board meetings. 7. The continuation of having an SDSSA representative attend SDHSAA Board meetings for the purpose of providing SDSSA members with a summary report of any actions taken by the SDHSAA Board. 11. The SDHSAA implemented a change that eliminated incentives for initiating or maintaining corporate sponsorships as part of the Director’s compensation package. 14. The SDSSA had indicated an interest in pursuing an amendment that would have changed the structure of the SDHSAA Executive Board to a 9 person board keeping the East/West/Native American, and School Board positions and dividing the student population into four (4) divisions rather than three (3). Position of the SDHSAA was that it was receptive to any proposed amendment submitted from member schools. =========================================================================== The committee identifies the following previously submitted items or concerns for follow-up discussion with the SDHSAA. 4. The SDSSA had recommended that the SDHSAA implement a method or methods for pre-arranged testimony via telephone or a web-based platform that would allow representatives of member schools to provide input if they were unable to be physically present at the SDHSAA Board meeting. The committee would like an update regarding whether the SDHSAA has developed or implemented methods to allow remote testimony. 5. The SDSSA would like to continue to have members of its committee meet with the SDHSAA staff prior to the start of each legislative session to review and develop positions on potential legislation that could impact the SDHSAA and its member schools. A meeting site and date to be set up at the convenience of both associations. 6. To improve communication this item promoted the idea of quarterly conference calls between members of the SDSSA Executive Board, the SDHSAA Director and those superintendents serving on the SDHSAA Executive Board. For follow-up discussion, this proposal should be assessed on the extent to which it was implemented and the overall perceived benefit. 8. Expressed a concern that an appeals process be put in place for any SDHSAA mandate that would financially impact member school districts by requiring the addition of staff or the expenditure of capital expenses. SDHSAA response at the time was that this proposal would be added as a discussion item/policy adoption

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 43

during the 2014-15 school year. SDHSAA did indicate that implementing an appeals process might require a constitutional amendment and vote of the member districts. Follow-up on this item would be an assessment of whether implementation was achieved through SDHSAA Board action or whether this putting this proposal in place requires that member schools petition the SDHSAA Board to proceed with the process of considering this as a constitutional amendment. 9. This proposal requested that the SDHSAA Executive Director or designee and SDHSAA Board members who are superintendents give an update on the finance committee and the status of corporate sponsors twice a year, once in the summer at the Joint Convention and once during the Legislative session in Pierre. At the time of the proposal, the SDHSAA responded that it was willing to provide this information as long as the association had advance notice of the location, date, and time for the presentation. Follow-up on this proposal would be an assessment of extent to which the two associations have scheduled and implemented such information sharing meetings. 10. A strong recommendation was made by SDSSA that no taxpayer money, school district funds, or ticket revenue would be utilized to fund the SDHSAA Foundation. The SDHSAA response at the time of the 2014 report was that the recommendation would be forwarded to the Board of Directors for consideration and potential policy recommendation. The SDSSA has not changed its position regarding this recommendation and would advocate that the SDHSAA Board consider adoption of the position through Board action or policy or provide the SDSSA with a statement of rationale regarding its resistance to the recommendation. 12. Proposal in 2014 was that SDHSAA corporate sponsors not be given preferential treatment from the SDHSAA when it comes to decisions that affect member schools. SDHSAA response to this item was general agreement with the recommended policy change and that the association staff would ensure that specific language would be written into upcoming annual operating plans that are signed and executed each fall. Follow-up at this time would be to have the SDHSAA Staff provide the SDSSA with a copy of the current operating plan identifying the section of language that was changed to address this proposal. 13. Proposal in 2014 was for a comprehensive review of the processes regarding the utilization of SDHSAA revenue that offsets expenses incurred by local school districts. It was recommended that the review include representatives from SDSSA, SDASBO, and SDHSAA with a focus on whether corporate donations and other revenue should be utilized to support the SDHSAA Foundation, be used to offset school district expenses, if they should be used for both the foundation and expense cutting, or for other purposes. Response from SDHSAA was that it would work in concert with the SDHSAA Finance Committee to develop a review process which would be an enhancement of its (2014) current policy with the Finance Committee with that review information shared with multiple organizations such as SDSSA. Follow-up would be an assessment regarding the efficacy of the SDHSAA working with the Finance Committee to distribute this report information to SDSSA and other related organizations (ie. ASBO). ==========================================================================

SDSSA Recommendations – November, 2016 1. The SDSSA Executive Board appreciates and supports the SDHSAA Executive Board’s decision to keep the Finance Committee in place. SDSSA believes the Finance Committee serves a significant role in transparency and communication for the member districts of the SDHSAA. SDSSA would recommend that the SDHSAA Executive Board reconsider the new structure of the Finance Committee. SDSSA believes that the Finance Committee should be made up of individuals that have a direct role in the overall budget and finances for member districts. To that end, superintendents, business managers, board members and to some extent perhaps principals should be represented on the Finance Committee. SDSSA believes that athletic directors are generally not responsible for or engaged in discussions of district budgets and therefore their inclusion on the Finance Committee takes up spots that might be better filled with individuals that have a broader perspective on school finances. 2. The SDSSA Executive Board understands the responsibility the SDHSAA Executive Board faces in its search to replace Director Carney and the leadership he has provided over the last several years. It is the SDSSA’s hope that the SDHSAA Executive Board search yields a number of high quality candidates to fill this position. Any general recommendations for filling the positions would include: • • • •

Leadership and a broad sense of the importance of athletics and fine arts in the development of young people A commitment to expanded use of technology to enhance communication, transparency and accountability A broad sense of school finance and how mandated expenditures in one budget area can negatively impact financial priorities in other areas of a district budget The ability to follow through on initiatives that represent the will of the majority of the association’s member districts even if they conflict with the director’s personal vision

Chairman Morford declared the Board in recess at 10:00 a.m. Chairman Morford declared the Board back in session at 10:10 a.m. Consider classification appeals for the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 alignment years Every alignment year, the SDHSAA reviews applications for classification appeals based on the average daily membership (ADM) numbers reported by the member schools to the SD Department of Education. The following classification appeals were submitted for consideration: 1) Hamlin High School in the sports of football & golf 2) Lake Preston High School in the sport of football 3) Mount Vernon High School and Plankinton High School in the sport of football 4) Sisseton High School in the sport of football 5) Beresford High School and Alcester-Hudson High School in the sport of wrestling 6) Tiospa Zina High School in the sport of football Mr. Patrick Kraning, Hamlin High School Superintendent, provided the Board of Directors with documents to support the classification appeal from Hamlin High School. The male only ADM count for Hamlin High School, 75.371, placed Hamlin in the 11B class of football. However, due to religious belief and practice the actual number of male students who are able to participate is 35. That ADM number, 35, places Hamlin in the 9 man classification. Per SDHSAA policy, teams that appeal their classification from 11 man to 9 man, must be placed in the 9AA classification. Hamlin High School also requested a classification appeal in the sport of golf to allow Hamlin to compete in Class B golf. Hamlin High School’s total enrollment, grades 9-11, is 146.886. However, due to religious belief and practice the actual number of students who are able to participate is 68.000. The proposed ADM number, 78.886, places Hamlin in the Class B classification in the sport of golf. Following discussion, it was moved by David Planteen, seconded by Dr. Jason Uttermark, to approve the classification appeals for Hamlin High School in the sports of football and golf. The motion passed 9-0. Lake Preston High School filed a classification appeal in the sport of football based upon three apostolic Lutheran students and another individual who does not attend school regularly, but is placed at the LifeScape facility in Sioux Falls. Following discussion, it was moved by Dr. Roger Bordeaux, seconded by Moe Ruesink, to approve the classification appeal for Lake Preston High School. The motion passed 9-0. Mount Vernon High School and Plankinton High School requested a classification appeal in the sport of football. The combined ADM used for classification purposes for the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 alignment years for the Mount Vernon/Plankinton football cooperative is 63.156. This would place the Mount Vernon/Plankinton football cooperative in Class 11B for the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 alignment period. However, Mount Vernon Superintendent, Mr. Patrick Mikkonen, and Athletic Director, Mr. Eric Denning, requested the Board to review the number of male students in grades 7-8-9 to determine if the Mount Vernon/Plankinton football cooperative should be given a grace period prior to moving into Class 11 B football. Per SDHSAA policy adopted in June of 2016, a grace period may be awarded if the “numbers published by the Department of Education” show that a school will return to the nine-man

ranks in the next classification cycle. Mr. Mikkonen & Mr. Denning noted that while the DOE numbers do show a total of 57 students in grades 7-8-9, three of those students have since left the districts, and asked the board to reconsider their classification placement. Following much discussion, it was moved by Moe Ruesink, seconded by Sandy Klatt, to approve the classification appeal for the Mount Vernon/Plankinton football cooperative. The motion failed on a 3-6 roll call vote. Those voting aye were: Moe Ruesink, Jim Aisenbrey, and Sandy Klatt. Those voting nay were: David Planteen, Dr. Jason Uttermark, Dr. Roger Bordeaux, Dr. Brian Maher, Steve Morford, and Bud Postma. SDHSAA Board of Directors members requested that the policy be reviewed through the advisory process to determine changes or rework the policy as needed to alleviate this question in future years. Sisseton High School requested a classification appeal in the sport of football to allow Sisseton to compete in Class 11B football. Per the numbers received from the Department of Education, Sisseton’s male only ADM was reported to the SDHSAA is 101.838 placing Sisseton in Class 11A in the sport of football. Sisseton noted that due to a clerical error, four students who were mistakenly entered as juniors instead of seniors in the information provided to the DOE. Mr. Jack Appel, Sisseton High School Athletic Director, requested by appeal that these four students be taken off the 101.838 count which would place Sisseton at 97.838 thus placing Sisseton in Class 11B in the sport of football. It was moved by Sandy Klatt, seconded by Jim Aisenbrey, to approve the classification appeal for Sisseton High School in the sport of football. The motion passed 8-1 with Dr. Roger Bordeaux voting nay. Beresford High School and Alcester-Hudson High School are requesting a classification appeal in the sport of wrestling to be allowed to compete in Class ‘B’ wrestling. The combined ADM for the Beresford/Alcester-Hudson wrestling cooperative is 236.691. Class ‘A’ in the sport of wrestling is 225.000 and above. Should the Board of Directors adopt the 10% rule that is currently being used in the sports of football, basketball, and volleyball for the upcoming alignment period in the sport of wrestling, the Beresford/Alcester-Hudson wrestling cooperative would have an ADM of 217.541, thus placing the cooperative in Class ‘B’ in the sport of wrestling. Following discussion, it was moved by Dr. Uttermark, seconded by Sandy Klatt, to table the request until the Wrestling Advisory Committee has an opportunity to meet and the SDIAAA has the opportunity to vote on any proposal that may come forward regarding a 10% rule in the sport of wrestling. The motion passed 9-0. A request from Tiospa Zina for a classification appeal was withdrawn by the member school and, therefore, no action taken by the Board of Directors. Executive Session—Personnel SDCL 1-25-2.4 It was moved by Moe Ruesink, seconded by Bud Postma, to enter executive session at 11:13 a.m. The motion passed 9-0. Dr. Jason Uttermark recused himself from the Executive Session.

Chairman Morford declared the Board out of executive session at 12:56 p.m. It was moved by Dr. Brian Maher, seconded by Jim Aisenbrey, to offer the position of SDHSAA Executive Director to Dr. Daniel Swartos, with the details of the offer to be worked out prior to the March 1, 2017, meeting of the Board of Directors. The motion passed 9-0. Chairman Morford appointed Sandy Klatt, Dr. Maher, and Jim Aisenbrey to act as a subcommittee to work out the details of the benefits package for Dr. Swartos. Board members Dr. Brian Maher and Moe Ruesink were excused from the meeting at 1:04 p.m. 2017 Legislative Session As per discussion during the November 2, 2016, meeting of the BOD’s, no proposed legislation that would directly affect the SDHSAA had been brought to our attention. Assistant Executive Director Krogstrand informed the Board that the SDHSAA may be asked to report how member schools are classified using the current ADM format. Following discussion, no further action was taken. Consider constitutional changes for 2017-2018 As per the SDHSAA Constitution, Article X, page 12, the constitution may be amended in two ways: SECTION 1. METHOD OF PROPOSING. Amendments to this Constitution or any set of Bylaws hereinafter included may be proposed by the Board of Directors, or by member schools through presentation of a petition signed by the administrators of thirty or more member schools. Proposed amendments must be submitted in writing to the Executive Director thirty days or more prior to the Annual Meeting or Special Meeting in order to be considered at that meeting. Assistant Executive Director Krogstrand advised the Board that a member school has indicated an interest in proposing a constitutional amendment to Chapter II, Part I, page 16, Section 1 of the SDHSAA Bylaws, Change of Schools Effect on Eligibility. The following is a draft of the text for the proposed amendment discussed during the November 2, 2016, meeting of the Board of Directors. Staff suggests further review at this time, as well as during the March 1, 2017, meeting of the Board of Directors, and possibly bringing the proposed amendment forth for a vote of the membership following the Annual Meeting of the Association scheduled for April 18, 2017. Amend Chapter II – Bylaws for Athletics, Part I Further Eligibility Requirements for Athletic Contests, Section 1, Sub-Section N (additions in BOLD, deletions in strikethrough, other editorial changes and renumbering not listed): TRANSFER OF ATHLETIC ELIGIBILITY FOR SDHSAA OPEN ENROLLMENT STUDENTS. Any student who transfers from a member high school to another member high school shall be eligible to participate in interscholastic athletics provided such student has met the standards for SDHSAA athletic open enrollment as defined in the following paragraph: 1. SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students transferring from one high school to another must have the school (s)he leaves file a transcript of credits with the principal of the school to which (s)he is transferring. Until such transcript is filed the student is ineligible.

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 52

In order for SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students to be eligible immediately for participation in interscholastic athletics of the SDHSAA, the student must have been both: (1) be enrolled on the first day of the school year at the school they are open enrolling to, and, (2) have not competed in any SDHSAA-Sanctioned athletic contest at the school they are open enrolling from during that school year’s athletic season. Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. 2. For students who do not meet these criteria enrolled on the first day of the school year at the school they are open enrolling to: a. SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students enrolled in a SDHSAA member school which operates a five (5) day week shall become eligible on the forty-sixth (46th) scheduled day of school provided all other SDHSAA regulations are met. Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. b. SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students enrolled in an SDHSAA member school which operates a four (4) day week shall become eligible on the thirty-seventh (37th) scheduled day of school provided all other SDHSAA regulations are met. Revised 2005 Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. 3. In addition, all such students must meet all other eligibility requirements. 4. For purposes of this Bylaw “standards for open enrollment” shall mean such standards authorized by a public school board as required by SDCL §13-28-40 through and including SDCL §13-28-47. In the case of a non-public school, such comparable standards and time-lines, as set forth in SDCL §1328-40 through and including SDCL §13-28-47 would be applicable to such school. 5. In such cases, eligibility is applicable to the initial SDHSAA athletic open enrollment transfer only. Any subsequent SDHSAA athletic open enrollment transfer to another high school shall render the student ineligible for one year with one exception. The exception: In the event a student returns to: (1) his/her former school; or (2) where his/her parents reside, the student will not be eligible until the beginning of the following school year. NOTE: The open enrollment statutes SDCL §13-28-40 through §13-18-47 do not change the Bylaws of the SDHSAA. Thus Chapter II, Part I, Section 1, Sub-Sections (a) and (f) apply to sports eligibility for all open enrollment students. • Once enrolled in a nonresident district or non-assigned school, the student may remain enrolled and is not required to resubmit annual applications. • Students who open enroll from one school in a cooperative to the other school(s) in the same cooperative will not have to sit out the 45/36 school day waiting period providing all school(s) in the cooperative coop in all athletic activities in the same gender. Minutes-November 25, 2002 NOTE: See State Statutes section of Athletic Handbook for Open Enrollment Options between North Dakota and Minnesota. Following discussion, no further action was taken.

Trophy/Plaque Extension with A & M The contract with A&M for trophies and plaques expires at the conclusion of the 2016-2017 school year. Staff has been working with Mark Austin, A&M Products Company, on a new design for SDHSAA trophies which would eliminate the figurines as they are becoming cost prohibitive and difficult for A&M to secure. Cost for the new state tournament trophy will be $110.00 each vs. the current price of $140.00 each. Costs for the district championship plaque would remain at $43.75 and the district runnerup plaque remaining at $42.00. Costs for the region championship plaque would be $45.00 and the region runner-up plaque remaining at $43.75. Staff is to inquire from Mr. Austin if A&M would consider signing a five year contract vs. a three year contract to lock in pricing for an additional two year period. Following further discussion, it was moved by Dr. Roger Bordeaux, seconded by David Planteen, to approve the new trophy design and contract extension. The motion passed 7-0. Board Sharing A. Assistant Executive Director Bowman updated the Board on the #MyReasonWhy campaign of the NFHS. The campaign lets students, coaches, parents, and those other people who support educationally based activities programs to “tell their reason why” these programs are important and the influence educationally based activities programs have on their lives. Adjournment There being no further business to come before the Board, it was moved by Bud Postma, seconded by Sandy Klatt, to adjourn at 1:14 p.m. The motion passed 7-0. Respectfully submitted,

Amend Chapter II – Bylaws for Athletics, Part I Further Eligibility Requirements for Athletic Contests, Section 1, Sub-Section N (additions in BOLD, deletions in strikethrough, other editorial changes and renumbering not listed): TRANSFER OF ATHLETIC ELIGIBILITY FOR SDHSAA OPEN ENROLLMENT STUDENTS. Any student who transfers from a member high school to another member high school shall be eligible to participate in interscholastic athletics provided such student has met the standards for SDHSAA athletic open enrollment as defined in the following paragraph: 1. SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students transferring from one high school to another must have the school (s)he leaves file a transcript of credits with the principal of the school to which (s)he is transferring. Until such transcript is filed the student is ineligible. In order for SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students to be eligible immediately for participation in interscholastic athletics of the SDHSAA, the student must have been both: (1) be enrolled on the first day of the school year at the school they are open enrolling to, and, (2) have not competed in any SDHSAA-Sanctioned athletic contest at the school they are open enrolling from during that school year’s athletic season. Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. 2. For students who do not meet these criteria enrolled on the first day of the school year at the school they are open enrolling to: a. SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students enrolled in a SDHSAA member school which operates a five (5) day week shall become eligible on the forty-sixth (46th) scheduled day of school provided all other SDHSAA regulations are met. Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. b. SDHSAA athletic open enrollment students enrolled in an SDHSAA member school which operates a four (4) day week shall become eligible on the thirty-seventh (37th) scheduled day of school provided all other SDHSAA regulations are met. Revised 2005 Member schools must have the necessary athletic open enrollment papers filed with the SDHSAA office prior to allowing athletic open enrollment students the opportunity to play. Until such athletic open enrollment paperwork is filed, the student is ineligible. 3. In addition, all such students must meet all other eligibility requirements. 4. For purposes of this Bylaw “standards for open enrollment” shall mean such standards authorized by a public school board as required by SDCL §13-28-40 through and including SDCL §13-28-47. In the case of a non-public school, such comparable standards and time-lines, as set forth in SDCL §1328-40 through and including SDCL §13-28-47 would be applicable to such school. 5. In such cases, eligibility is applicable to the initial SDHSAA athletic open enrollment transfer only. Any subsequent SDHSAA athletic open enrollment transfer to another high school shall render the student ineligible for one year with one exception. The exception: In the event a student returns to: (1) his/her former school; or (2) where his/her parents reside, the student will not be eligible until the beginning of the following school year.

NOTE: The open enrollment statutes SDCL §13-28-40 through §13-18-47 do not change the Bylaws of the SDHSAA. Thus Chapter II, Part I, Section 1, Sub-Sections (a) and (f) apply to sports eligibility for all open enrollment students. • Once enrolled in a nonresident district or non-assigned school, the student may remain enrolled and is not required to resubmit annual applications. • Students who open enroll from one school in a cooperative to the other school(s) in the same cooperative will not have to sit out the 45/36 school day waiting period providing all school(s) in the cooperative coop in all athletic activities in the same gender. Minutes-November 25, 2002 NOTE: See State Statutes section of Athletic Handbook for Open Enrollment Options between North Dakota and Minnesota. A motion was made by Dr. Maher, seconded by Jim Aisenbrey, to present the proposed amendment at the Annual Meeting of the Association scheduled for April 18, 2017, and bring the proposal forward for a vote of the membership. The motion passed 9-0. Chairman Morford declared the Board in recess at 12:25 p.m. Chairman Morford declared the Board back in session at 1:00 p.m. Discuss, consider, and take all necessary action regarding policy development for entering into a contract on behalf of the SDHSAA Dr. Maher began the discussion. It is the belief of the Board that structures need to be put in place in regards to policy development for checks and balances in entering into corporate contracts. The absence of policy needs to be corrected immediately. Dr. Maher recommended that a committee be formed to develop such policy that would be prepared and ready for review by the SDHSAA Board of Directors in April. Jim Aisenbrey commented on how contracts are approved in his school system and board of directors. He feels that all SDHSAA contracts should be approved by the SDHSAA Board of Directors. Sandy Klatt feels that all contracts should be in board packets for meetings to be approved by the SDHSAA Board of Directors. Dr. Bordeaux cautions that any policy not be so restrictive that it prohibits the SDHSAA staff from being able to do their jobs. Following further discussion, it was moved by Dr. Maher, seconded by Jim Aisenbrey, that a committee be made up of 3 board members and the SDHSAA attorney to develop a policy for the Board’s review. The motion passed 9-0. The three Board members shall be Steve Morford, Bud Postma, and David Planteen. Discuss, consider, and take all necessary action regarding policy development on the SDHSAA Foundation Chairman Morford is waiting for the audit report to see how to delineate between the SDHSAA and the SDHSAA Foundation. Mr. Morford feels that a committee should be developed, similar in structure to the Calendar Committee, to develop a policy for developing the SDHSAA Foundation.

Executive Director Carney discussed the history of the SDHSAA Finance Committee and corporate funds. Mr. David Hutchinson, Irene-Wakonda Superintendent, spoke about his concerns over what the corporate funds are being used for. He asked if the corporate funds are going into the Foundation, would that make them Corporate Partners or Foundation Partners? Mr. Jason Selchert, Superintendent of Gayville-Volin School District and Mr. Tom Culver, Superintendent of the Avon School District, feel that the Association has not honored the requests of member schools in regards to how funds are being utilized. Following further discussion, it was moved by David Planteen, seconded by Dr. Uttermark, that a committee be formed to develop a policy for funding the SDHSAA Foundation. The motion passed 9-0.

Motion by Mitchell, second by Osborne, to increase official’s fees by $5.00 beginning in 2017-2018 and designating the $5.00 increase to the Sports Officials Advisory Council Treasury. Motion approved 8-0. Following discussion, it was moved by Dr. Maher, seconded by Moe Ruesink, to approve the recommendation from the SDHSAA Sports Officials’ Advisory Council The motion passed 9-0.

Review the minutes from the February 22, 2017, Finance Advisory Committee Meeting The following appear in the minutes of the February 22, 2017, meeting of the Finance Advisory Committee: Following review of many documents and much discussion, it was moved by Sandy Klatt, seconded by Dr. Jeff Danielsen, to make the following recommendations to the SDHSAA Board of Directors: • The Board of Directors of the SDHSAA should consider the requests of the corporate sponsors as documented in the letters received from them. • The Board of Directors should develop a policy to differentiate between SDHSAA corporate sponsors and SDHSAA Foundation partners including promotional benefits available to each. • The SDHSAA should formalize, in policy, the allowable uses of SDHSAA foundation earnings. • The revenue and expenditures of the SDHSAA should be reviewed and recommendations developed with the goal to make SDHSAA self-sufficient. • The SDHSAA Foundation should consider becoming a 501 (c)(3) tax exempt non-profit organization.

Appendix B The South Dakota School Superintendent Association (SDSSA) Executive Board is opposed to the South Dakota High School Activities Association (SDHSAA) Board of Directors approving contracts with Corporate Sponsors that designate specific use of corporate funds to the Foundation—or any other designated fund. Corporate partnerships must remain free of “strings” or “conditions” as has been the practice of the SDHSAA since the beginning of corporate sponsorships. The current attempt to allow Corporate Sponsors to designate funds will result in a significant and unnecessary cost burden to member schools, taxpayers, and reduction of services to students currently participating in SDHSAA activities.

football game for majority of schools is 8/18. Many of our senior boys (ages 14-18) who rodeo are also superb cowboys and compete at our rodeo. As most are aware, the change in the football schedule was brought about by the recommendation of the Calendar Committee with the calendar being adopted by the Board of Directors. The change facilitated the playoff dates being a week apart as a risk minimization practice. Ms. Hanson and Mr. Bergeson were encouraged to correspond with the SDHSAA office prior to the next realignment period (January 2019) and prior to the football schedules being adopted for the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 school years.

Following discussion, it was moved by Dr. Jason Uttermark , seconded by David Planteen, to approve as a first reading the proposed district/region alignments for fine arts activities for the 2017-18 and 2018-19 school years. The motion passed 9-0. Conduct a second reading to adopt the State Student Council Convention as a fully sponsored SDHSAA activity effective the 2017-2018 school year. The following appears in the minutes of the March 1, 2017, meeting of the Board of Directors: Assistant Executive Director Bowman led a discussion relative to the State Student Council Convention being fully funded and sponsored as a SDHSAA event. Mr. Bowman presented the Board with a proposed income and expense budget analysis for their review. Mr. Bowman will have further discussions with the State Student Council Advisory Committee during their state convention scheduled for April 9-11, 2017, in Rapid City. Following further discussion, it was moved by Jim Aisenbrey, seconded by Moe Ruesink, to approve as a first reading the proposed fully funded and sponsored SDHSAA State Student Council Convention. The motion passed 8-1 with Dr. Bordeaux dissenting. Following further discussion, and a report from Assistant Executive Director Bowman, it was moved by David Planteen, seconded by Jim Aisenbrey, to approve as a second reading the proposed fully funded and sponsored SDHSAA State Student Council Convention. The motion passed 9-0. Chairman Morford declared the Board in recess at 10:30 a.m. Chairman Morford declared the Board back in session at 10:42 a.m. Conduct a first reading on proposed changes to SDHSAA Athletics Handbook, proposed changes from the Sports Official’s Advisory Council, and the Sports Medicine Advisory Council Basketball It was moved by Dr. Brian Maher, seconded by Dr. Jason Uttermark, to approve the following: AA seeding system, will deduct an additional point deduction for games against an ‘A’ and ‘B’ opponent (for playing a Class A opponent, 3 points will be deducted and for playing a Class B opponent, 4 points will be deducted). The motion failed 4-5. Those voting aye: Dr. Jason Uttermark, Dr. Roger Bordeaux, Dr. Brian Maher, and Sandy Klatt. Those voting nay: David Planteen, Moe Ruesink, Jim Aisenbrey, Steve Morford, Bud Postma. It was moved by Sandy Klatt, seconded by Moe Ruesink, to approve the following: Class AA: “SWEET 16” Proposal (to go into effect 2017-18 school year): • The top 16 schools based on the regular season seed points would qualify to a Sweet 16 game. Schools outside the top 16 would not qualify for post-season play.

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 106

•

The top 8 seeds would host the one game. The winner advances to State, the loser is eliminated. • The format would be as follows: o #1 seed host #16 seed. o #2 seed host #15 seed. o #3 seed host #14 seed. o #4 seed host #13 seed. o #5 seed host #12 seed. o #6 seed host #11 seed. o #7 seed host #10 seed. o #8 seed host #9 seed. Dates for possible consideration. Boys & Girls Basketball Season Proposed Changes: Last day to play a regular season contest – Saturday, Week 34 (February 24, 2018). Still play 20 regular season games. 1-16 GBB Play-in Round at the Higher Seed – Friday, Week 35 (March 2, 2018). 1-16 BBB Play-in Round at the Higher Seed – Saturday, Week 35 (March 3, 2018). GBB & BBB Play-in Round Dates can rotate back and forth between Friday & Saturday annually if so desired. State Basketball Tournament – Same Dates. Week 37 (March 15, 16 & 17, 2018). *SDHSAA can determine what percentage of the gate revenue from the 1-16 Play-in Round games to take to make up for the loss of revenue from not having as many district and region games. That number can fluctuate for several years until the right percentage is found. *Travel – AA Schools could actually potentially save money on transportation costs by only having to travel once prior to the state tournament vs. traveling 2, 3 or even 4 times when traveling for district play-in games as well as district & region games. Travel occurs across the state currently for soccer and football playoffs AND District 3 & 4 already travel across the state for their Region Games. *District Play-in Games – A 1-16 seeding system takes the play-in match/game away from District 2 & District 4, leveling the playing field for all AA teams. The current district play-in format occasionally pits two teams against each other that have no business playing in a play-in an elimination game just because of geography. *Seeds 17 & 18 miss the playoffs. Teams currently miss the playoffs in AA Football & Soccer already so this is a non-issue. Those speaking in favor of the proposal were: Randy Marso-Brandon Valley, Chris HaynesYankton, and Mark Meile-Sioux Falls. Those speaking in opposition to the proposal were: Jordan Bauer-Spearfish, Mike Paris-Sturgis, Darren Paulson-RC Central, and Jared Vasquez-RC Stevens. The motion passed 6-3. Those voting aye: Moe Ruesink, Jim Aisenbrey, Bud Postma, Dr. Roger Bordeaux, Dr. Brian Maher, and Sandy Klatt. Those voting nay: David Planteen, Dr. Jason Uttermark, and Steve Morford. It was moved by Sandy Klatt, seconded by Dr. Brian Maher, to approve the following for both basketball and volleyball: Class B & A: State Qualifying Round Contest- Sweet Sixteen a. Play postseason region play until there are two remaining teams left in each Region.

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 107

b. Reseed the remaining teams 1 – 16 using the SDHSAA seeding formula. (Sweet Sixteen8 games per class/per gender) Sweet Sixteen winners would qualify for the state tournament. c. Sites for the state qualifying round will be sought out and determined by the SDHSAA. • Two state qualifying contests will be played at a site per date with times to be assigned and determined. (Double header combination of – Two A state qualifying contests, two B or a combination of Class A & B contests.) *Travel distance will be taken into consideration when possible. • All officials for the state qualifying round will be assigned by the SDHSAA staff. • The SDHSAA staff will assign an AD/Site Coordinator to help organize details/workers/etc. for each state qualifying site. Those speaking in favor of the proposal were: Tom Culver-Avon, Jim Bridge-Hanson, and Larry Nebelsick-Canistota. Those speaking in opposition of the proposal were: Dan Martin-Timber Lake and Eldon Marshall-White River. The motion passed 8-1 with Steve Morford dissenting.

Football It was moved by Dr. Brian Maher, seconded by Dr. Jason Uttermark, to approve the following: 1. Halftimes for all SDHSAA Varsity Nine-Man Competitions shall be 12 minutes, with the mandatory plus-three warm-up to follow. Halftimes may be extended to a maximum 20plus-3 if both teams are provided 24 hours of advance notice. 2. Weekly Evaluations & Coaches Vote.

The motion passed 9-0 It was moved by Bud Postma, seconded by Jim Aisenbrey, to approve the following for 11-Man football and send the proposal back to the Football Advisory Committee for further consideration for 9 man: Scheduling: To address scheduling guidelines for the SDHSAA Staff, the following mandates shall be imposed:

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 108

a. Teams participating in 11-man football must play a minimum of six of their regular season games against teams either in their classification or from a higher classification (For example, a team in 11A must play a minimum of six of its nine games against teams from 11A, AA or AAA and could only play a maximum of three 11B squads), and, b. Teams participating in 9-man football must play a minimum of four of their regular season games against teams either in their classification or from a higher classification (For example, a team in 9A must play a minimum of four of its eight games against teams from either 9A or 9AA, and could only play a maximum of four 9B squads) Those speaking to the proposal: Tom Culver-Avon. The motion passed 9-0. Golf It was moved by Sandy Klatt, seconded by Moe Ruesink, to approve the following: On-Course Coaching: The Golf Advisory Committee recommends a slight change to the verbiage adopted last year for on-course coaching, specifically to allow coaches to be able to use USGAApproved Range Finders when on the course to share distance information with players during allowed coaching opportunities. The motion passed 9-0. Gymnastics It was moved by Dr. Brian Maher, seconded by Bud Postma, to approve the following: Individual Day: A maximum of 40 participants will qualify for each event.

The motion passed 9-0. Chairman Morford declared the Board in recess for lunch at 12:20 p.m. Chairman Morford declared the Board back in session at 1:25 p.m. Soccer It was moved by Jim Aisenbrey, seconded by Sandy Klatt, to approve the following: 1. The mercy rule be amended to include a “running clock” be used once a lead reaches six goals in the second half. Timing would return to regular stoppages if the lead decreases to 3 goals, and the 10-goal early-termination rule remains in place as well. 2. All sub-state game hosts be required to collect gate/admission for those contests. If, due to special circumstances, the host school cannot collect a gate, they may request a waiver from the SDHSAA staff. The motion passed 9-0. It was moved by Dr. Brian Maher, seconded by Sandy Klatt, to not approve the following:

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 109

Overtime: The Advisory Committee recommends that regular season games no longer end in a tie, but utilize SDHSAA/NFHS Overtime rules. Those speaking in support of the motion were Randy Marso-Brandon Valley and Steve Kueter-SF O’Gorman. The motion passed 9-0. Tennis It was moved by Sandy Klatt, seconded by Dr. Brian Maher, to approve the following: Appeals may be made for each flight for the top eight seed placements should a coach feel that the seed system has failed his/her player. The criteria to be considered by the Appeals Committee will be as follows: a. Seed system b. Direct wins c. Indirect wins d. Using the top 1-8 seeds, if you have not beaten anyone in the top 8 that player in question moves to the #8 seed. e. Committee has the ability to use discretion and common sense in placement of players based on coach’s testimony. The motion passed 9-0.

Volleyball It was moved by Bud Postma, seconded by Sandy Klatt, to approve the following: Class AA only: Sweet 16 format a. Top 16 schools based on the regular season seed points would qualify to a Sweet 16 contest. Schools outside the top 16 would not qualify for post-season play. b. The top 8 seeds would host the one contest. The winner advances to State, with the loser eliminated. c. Contests would be as follows based on regular season seed points: 1 vs. 16, 2 vs. 15, 3 vs. 14, 4 vs. 13, 5 vs. 12, 6 vs. 11, 7 vs. 10, and 8 vs. 9. d. The last day for a regular season contest would be Thursday of wk. 18 ( November 2, 2017) e. No matches may be played on Thursday-Saturday of Wk.17 (All State Chorus/Orch.) f. Sweet 16 contests would take place on Thursday of wk. 19 (November 9, 2017) g. The winners of those contests advance to the State Tournament Thursday wk. 20 (November 16, 2017). Other considerations: h. SDHSAA can determine what percentage of the gate revenue from the Sweet 16 format to take based on the loss of revenue from not having as many district and region games. i. Travel-AA school could actually potentially save money on transportation costs by only having to travel once prior to the state tournament vs. traveling 2, 3 or event 4 times when traveling for district play-in, district or region games.

Annual Meeting Bulletin

The motion passed 8-1 with Steve Morford dissenting. It was moved by David Planteen, seconded by Dr. Roger Bordeaux, to approve the following:

Add another tier for match limitations, for Class AA to allow 16 duals and 4 tournaments and for Class A and B the tier to add would be 15 duals and 4 tournaments.

Wrestling It was moved by Bud Postma, seconded by Dr. Jason Uttermark, to approve the following: Region Timeline: Amend the timeline for region entries to state that “Final Entries for Region competition are now due at 12 Noon on the day of the seeding meeting (Thursday) and must be entered into TrackWrestling. The only movement of wrestlers allowed after this deadline will be for documented injury or illness, including allowing wrestlers to be moved between weight classes to accommodate the injury/illness.” State Tournament Seeding: For the seeding/draw of the State Tournament, seed 12 wrestlers in each bracket. Region champions will remain guaranteed a seed within the top eight. The committee also will have the ability to reseed/redraw a bracket if a forfeit occurs within the top eight seeds prior to the start of competition. Region & State Seeding Formula: Change the format for determining common opponent criteria to match the TrackWrestling Default criteria (not head-to-head). Those criteria are as follows: (1) If wrestler “A” has more wins than losses against “B”, wrestler “A” is given a 1-0 record against B (2) If wrestler “A” has fewer wins than losses against “B”, wrestler “A” is given a 0-1 record

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 111

against B, (3) If wrestler “A” and “B” have the same number of wins and losses against one another, a 0-0 record is given. Seeding – State Tournament: Incorporate additional language into the seeding criteria to utilize “same region place comparison” when evaluating wrestlers for a seed prior to ‘any region place’. The motion passed 9-0. It was moved by Jim Aisenbrey, seconded by Dr. Brian Maher, to approve the following: Incorporate the 10% rule for determining school/team ADM figures into the sport of wrestling. This rule would include counting 10% of a smaller (satellite) school’s enrollment in a co-op for every participant in wrestling, grades 7-11, who have competed at the high school level in competition. Speaking in favor of the proposal was Brian Field-Beresford. The motion failed 2-7. Those voting aye: Jim Aisenbrey and Dr. Brian Maher. Those voting nay: David Planteen, Dr. Jason Uttermark, Moe Ruesink, Dr. Roger Bordeaux, Steve Morford, Bud Postma, and Sandy Klatt.

Oral Interp Handbook additions and change: The advisory committee recommends that the following addition and change be made to the Oral Interp Handbook: “Article 5, Section 5: Manuscript Optional: The use of manuscripts are optional in all Oral Interpretation categories. Judges are not to base their final judgments on use or nonuse of manuscripts.” “Article 5, Section 14: The purpose of Storytelling is to give students the opportunity to develop the art of creating a mood wherein a spoken narrative transports the audience to the time and place of the story being recounted. A storyteller is a narrator - not an actor or actress - and although gestures, pantomime, movement, and characterization are not barred, they must be used with restraint. The focus of the presentation must be on the narrative, with the teller acting as a presenter and not a performer. The teller must clearly grasp and convey the meaning of the tale. The judge should rate highly the mechanics of superior speaking: fluency, vocal variety, articulation, eye contact, gesture. The presentation should be extempore, not read. No book or script may be used. The storyteller may speak standing or seated in a chair or combination of both. NO STOOLS ARE PERMITTED. The chair used in performance must be provided by the site host. No props or visual aids may be used. "When the teller has been successful in bringing the tale to life, the telling will seem entirely natural, almost effortless". “Article 5, Section 3: With the exception of Non-Original Oratory and Readers Theatre, all selections in Storytelling, Serious Reading, Poetry Reading, Humorous and Duet must be cuttings from novels, short stories, plays or poetry that are copyrighted and published in either electronic or print form.” Format Alteration for Oral Interp: The advisory committee recommends adding a rubric to the Oral Interp Festival. This is a modified festival format, which uses the rubric, but uses a numeric scoring system to determine “Superior with Distinction”, “Superior”, “Excellent”, and “Good” ratings. Awards would only be given for “Superior with Distinction” and “Superior” ratings. There would be no change in how Team Excellence Awards are currently decided. Each of the 5 criteria used on each rubric will be worth 1 point for Superior, 2 for Excellent, and 3 for Good. Each judge on the 3-judge panel would score each festival entry. The score ranges for each tier are as follows: Superior with Distinction – 15 points Superior – 16-21 points Excellent – 22-30 points Good – 31-45 points

APPENDIX ONE Heat Acclimatization—football

Heat-Acclimatization Regulations for SDHSAA Football 1. Days 1 through 5 of the heat-acclimatization period consist of the first 5 days of formal practice. During this time, athletes may not participate in more than 1 practice per day. 2. If a practice is interrupted by inclement weather or heat restrictions, the practice should recommence once conditions are deemed safe. Total practice time should not exceed 3 hours in any 1 day. 3. A 1-hour maximum walk-through is permitted during days 1–5 of the heat-acclimatization period. However, a 3-hour recovery period should be inserted between the practice and walk-through (or vice versa). The only pieces of player equipment to be worn by the individuals during the walk-through are shoes and helmets. The only pieces of general equipment to be used during the walk-through are footballs and kicking tees. 4. During days 1 & 2 of the heat-acclimatization period, helmets are the only protective equipment permitted. During days 3 & 4, only helmets and shoulder pads permitted. Beginning on day 5, all protective equipment may be worn. 5. Beginning no earlier than day 6 and continuing through day 14 or the first scheduled varsity game, double-practice days must be followed by a single- practice day. On single-practice days, a 1-hour maximum walk-through is permitted, separated from the practice by at least 3 hours of continuous rest. When a double-practice day is followed by a rest day, another double- practice day is permitted after the rest day. Following the initial 14 days or varsity game, this restriction is removed. 6. On a double-practice day, neither practice should exceed 3 hours in duration, and student-athletes should not participate in more than 5 total hours of practice. Warm-up, stretching, cool-down, walk-through, conditioning, and weight-room activities are included as part of the practice time. The 2 practices should be separated by at least 3 continuous hours in a cool environment. 7. Because the risk of exertional heat illnesses during the preseason heat-acclimatization period is high, we strongly recommend that an medical personnel be on site before, during, and after all practices when possible.

*NOTES: 1. Consideration should also be taken for any practices conducted in hot and humid weather in non-air cooled facilities. 2.

APPENDIX TWO Heat Acclimatization—Soccer and Tennis

Heat-Acclimatization Regulations for SDHSAA Fall Soccer & Tennis 1. Days 1 through 5 of the heat-acclimatization period consist of the first 5 days of formal practice. During this time, athletes may not participate in more than 1 practice per day. 2. If a practice is interrupted by inclement weather or heat restrictions, the practice should recommence once conditions are deemed safe. Total practice time should not exceed 3 hours in any 1 day. 3. Beginning no earlier than day 6 and continuing through day 14 or the first varsity contest, double-practice days must be followed by a single-practice day. When a double-practice day is followed by a rest day, another double-practice day is permitted after the rest day. 4. On a double-practice day, neither practice should exceed 3 hours in duration, and student-athletes should not participate in more than 5 total hours of practice. Warm- up, stretching, cool-down, walk-through, conditioning, and weight-room activities are included as part of the practice time. The 2 practices should be separated by at least 3 continuous hours in a cool environment. 5. Because the risk of exertional heat illnesses during the preseason heat- acclimatization period is high, we strongly recommend that an athletic trainer be on site before, during, and after all practices.

*NOTES: Consideration should also be taken for any practices conducted in hot and humid weather in non-air cooled facilities. 2. Consult the Heat Index Calculator for more information at: http://www.sdhsaa.com/Athletics/HealthSafetyIssues/HeatIndexCalculator.aspx 3. Days are calculated inclusive of Sundays/weekends. 1.

APPENDIX THREE Football Contact Limitations

LEVELS OF CONTACT Levels of Contact focus on the varying levels of intensity throughout practices to build player confidence, ensure their safety and prevent both physical and mental exhaustion. These Levels of Contact will increase player safety by reducing the risk of helmet-tohelmet contact without sacrificing skill development. Five intensity levels are used to introduce players to practice drills which position them to master the fundamentals and increase skill development. Air Bags

(Coach pre-determined outcome) Players run a drill unopposed without contact. (Coach pre-determined outcome) Drill is run against a bag or another soft-contact surface.

Control

(Coach pre-determined outcome) Drill is run at assigned speed until the moment of contact; one player is pre-determined the “winner” by the coach. Contact remains above the waist and players stay on their feet.

Thud

(No coach pre-determined outcome) Drill is run at assigned speed through the moment of contact; no pre-determined “winner”. Contact remains above the waist, players stay on their feet and a quick whistle ends the drill.

Live Action

(No coach pre-determined outcome) Games, scrimmages and drills run in game-like conditions. These are the only times that players are taken to the ground.

CONTACT LIMITATIONS Day 1 & 2

3.11.4.6 – No Contact Rule Equipment – Helmets Allowable Contact – “Air” and “Bag” (COACH PRE-DETERMINED OUTCOME) o Unlimited

Day 3 & 4

The winner advances to State, the loser is eliminated. • The format would be as follows: o #1 seed host #16 seed. o #2 seed host #15 seed. o #3 seed host #14 seed. o #4 seed host #13 seed. o #5 seed host #12 seed. o #6 seed host #11 seed. o #7 seed host #10 seed. o #8 seed host #9 seed.

*SDHSAA can determine what percentage of the gate revenue from the 1-16 play-in round games to take to make up for the loss of revenue from not having districts or as many region games. That number can fluctuate for several years until the right percentage is found. *Travel – AA Schools could actually potentially save money on transportation costs by only having to travel once prior to the state tournament vs. traveling 2, 3 or even 4 times when traveling for district play-in games as well as district & region games. Travel occurs across the state currently for soccer and football playoffs AND District 3 & 4 already travel across the state for their Region Games. *District Play-in Games – A 1-16 seeding system takes the play-in match/game away from District 2 & District 4, leveling the playing field for all AA teams. The current district play-in format occasionally pits two teams against each other that have no business playing in a play-in an elimination game just because of geography. *Seeds 17 & 18 miss the playoffs. Teams currently miss the playoffs in AA Football & Soccer already so this is a non-issue. Class B & A: State Qualifying Round Contest-Sweet Sixteen a. Play postseason region play until there are two remaining teams left in each Region. b. Reseed the remaining teams 1 – 16 using the SDHSAA seeding formula. (Sweet Sixteen-8 games per class/per gender) Sweet Sixteen winners would qualify for the state tournament. c. Sites for the state qualifying round will be sought out and determined by the SDHSAA. • Two state qualifying contests will be played at a site per date with times to be assigned and determined. (Double header combination of – Two A state qualifying contests, two B or a combination of Class A & B contests.) *Travel distance will be taken into consideration when possible. • All officials for the state qualifying round will be assigned by the SDHSAA staff. • The SDHSAA staff will assign an AD/Site Coordinator to help organize details/workers/etc. for each state qualifying site. Competitive Cheer/ Competitive Dance/Sideline Cheer Competitive Cheer/Dance: Increase jewelry violation from 5 points to 10 points on the Technical Safety Score Sheet. Sideline Cheer: Limit the number of sideline basketball cheerleaders per level to a maximum of eight. Football 1. Halftimes for all SDHSAA Varsity Nine-Man Competitions shall be 12 minutes, with the mandatory plus-three warm-up to follow. Halftimes may be extended to a maximum 20-plus-3 if both teams are provided 24 hours of advance notice. 2. Weekly Evaluations & Coaches Vote: The committee proposes that the newly-implemented weekly officials’ evaluations continue, and coaches who fail to fill out multiple weekly crew evaluations will not be allowed to submit a recommendation vote for the State Semi-Final and Championship crews. Approve the following for 11-man football only: Scheduling: To address scheduling guidelines for the SDHSAA Staff, the following mandates shall be imposed: a. Teams participating in 11-man football must play a minimum of six of their regular season games against teams either in their classification or from a higher classification (For example, a team in 11A must play a minimum of six of its nine games against teams from 11A, AA or AAA and could only play a maximum of three 11B squads). Annual Meeting Bulletin

Golf On-Course Coaching: The Golf Advisory Committee recommends a slight change to the verbiage adopted last year for on-course coaching, specifically to allow coaches to be able to use USGA-Approved Range Finders when on the course to share distance information with players during allowed coaching opportunities. Gymnastics Individual Day: A maximum of 40 participants will qualify for each event. The top 5 individuals from each region/state qualifying meet shall qualify for the state meet, to give 10 competitors. The remaining number of athletes will be filled as wildcards from both region/state qualifying meets, to include in-season qualifiers in each event, not to exceed 40 unless there is a tie. Soccer It was moved by Jim Aisenbrey, seconded by Sandy Klatt, to approve the following: 1. The mercy rule be amended to include a “running clock” be used once a lead reaches six goals in the second half. Timing would return to regular stoppages if the lead decreases to 3 goals, and the 10-goal early-termination rule remains in place. 2. All sub-state game hosts be required to collect gate/admission for those contests. If, due to special circumstances, the host school cannot collect a gate, they may request a waiver from the SDHSAA staff. Tennis Appeals may be made for each flight for the top eight seed placements should a coach feel that the seed system has failed his/her player. The criteria to be considered by the Appeals Committee will be as follows: a. Seed system b. Direct wins c. Indirect wins d. Using the top 1-8 seeds, if you have not beaten anyone in the top 8 that player in question moves to the #8 seed. e. Committee has the ability to use discretion and common sense in placement of players based on coach’s testimony. Volleyball Class AA only: Sweet Sixteen format a. Top 16 schools based on the regular season seed points would qualify to a Sweet Sixteen contest. Schools outside the top 16 would not qualify for post-season play. b. The top 8 seeds would host the one contest. The winner advances to State, with the loser eliminated. c. Contests would be as follows based on regular season seed points: 1 vs. 16, 2 vs. 15, 3 vs. 14, 4 vs. 13, 5 vs. 12, 6 vs. 11, 7 vs. 10, and 8 vs. 9. d. The last day for a regular season contest would be Thursday of wk. 18 (November 2, 2017). e. No matches may be played on Thursday-Saturday of Wk.17 (All State Chorus/Orch.). f. Sweet Sixteen contests would take place on Thursday of wk. 19 (November 9, 2017). g. The winners of those contests advance to the State Tournament Thursday wk. 20 (November 16, 2017). Other considerations: h. SDHSAA can determine what percentage of the gate revenue from the Sweet Sixteen format to take based on the loss of revenue from not having as many district and region games.

i. Travel-AA school could actually potentially save money on transportation costs by only having to travel once prior to the state tournament vs. traveling 2, 3 or event 4 times when traveling for district play-in, district or region games. j. Eliminates the play-in game. k. Seeds 17 and 18 will not be involved in the playoffs. Soccer and Football currently operate the same way. Sweet Sixteen format for State Qualifying Procedure for Class B: 1. Use same region tournament format as Class A and utilize the current region to form the post-season tournament. Districts 1 and 2 make up Region 1, District 3 and 4 make up Region 2, etc. 2. When two teams remain in each region, the 16 remaining teams would be re-seeded 1-16. The winners of these contests advance to the state tournament. Add another tier for match limitations, for Class AA to allow 16 duals and 4 tournaments and for Class A and B the tier to add would be 15 duals and 4 tournaments. The tier now would look like this: Class AA Class A and Class B 20 duals – no tournaments 19 duals- no tournaments 19 duals – one tournament 18 duals – one tournament 18 duals – two tournaments 17 duals – two tournaments 17 duals – three tournaments 16 duals – three tournaments 16 duals – four tournaments 15 duals – four tournaments Wrestling Region Timeline: Amend the timeline for region entries to state that “Final entries for Region competition are now due at 12 noon on the day of the seeding meeting (Thursday), and must be entered into TrackWrestling. The only movement of wrestlers allowed after this deadline will be for documented injury or illness, including allowing wrestlers to be moved between weight classes to accommodate the injury/illness.” State Tournament Seeding: For the seeding/draw of the State Tournament, seed 12 wrestlers in each bracket. Region champions will remain guaranteed a seed within the top eight. The committee also will have the ability to reseed/redraw a bracket if a forfeit occurs within the top eight seeds prior to the start of competition. Region & State Seeding Formula: Change the format for determining common opponent criteria to match the TrackWrestling Default criteria (not head-to-head). Those criteria are as follows: (1) If wrestler “A” has more wins than losses against “B”, wrestler “A” is given a 1-0 record against B (2) If wrestler “A” has fewer wins than losses against “B”, wrestler “A” is given a 0-1 record against B, (3) If wrestler “A” and “B” have the same number of wins and losses against one another, a 0-0 record is given. Seeding – State Tournament: Incorporate additional language into the seeding criteria to utilize “same region place comparison” when evaluating wrestlers for a seed prior to ‘any region place’. Sports Officials Advisory Council: Officials’ Awards: Include two additional longevity awards for officials: a. At 40 years of service in officiating, award a “State Tournament Lifetime Pass,” comparable to what is awarded to Board of Directors and Executive Staff members. b. At 50 years of service in officiating, award a “50-year officials watch” with the SDHSAA logo in-laid. Officials’ Requirements: Add to the requirements for state tournament officials as follows:

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 142

a. In basketball, officials must work 12 varsity contests to be eligible for post-season work (non-gender specific, includes all post-season). b. In wrestling, officials must work 10 “points” of events to be eligible for state tournament consideration. Basketball Uniform: Include the option to wear the “college-style” warm-up jacket for basketball officials, provided the crew matches one another. Either the college-style or traditional all-black jacket would be acceptable. Sports Medicine Advisory Committee: Heat Acclimatization: Adopt Heat Acclimatization recommendations as formal policy for the sport of football for the 2017-18 School Year. Heat Acclimatization: Adopt “Simple” Heat Acclimatization recommendations as formal policy for the sports of Fall Girls’ Tennis & Soccer for the 2017-18 School Year. Heat Acclimatization: Beginning with the 2017 season, require head coaches in football, soccer and Girls’ tennis to complete the online Heat Acclimatization course one time (no annual renewal) prior to assuming their coaching duties. Contact Limitations - Football: Adopt contact limitation regulations for SDHSAA football effective for the 2017 football season. . The motion passed 6-2. Those voting aye were: David Planteen, Moe Ruesink, Dr. Roger Bordeaux, Jim Aisenbrey, Dr. Brian Maher, and Sandy Klatt. Those voting nay were: Dr. Jason Uttermark and Steve Morford. Chairman Morford declared the Board in recess for lunch at 12:08 p.m. Chairman Morford declared the Board back in session at 12:41 p.m. Conduct a second reading of the district/region alignments for fine arts activities: Following discussion, it was moved by Dr. Roger Bordeaux, seconded by Sandy Klatt, to approve as a second reading the proposed district/region alignments for fine arts activities for the 2017-18 and 2018-19 school years.

Storytelling Category Selection: “Mystery/Thriller” be used as the Storytelling theme for 2017-2018. Oral Interp Handbook additions and change: The following addition and change be made to the Oral Interp Handbook: “Article 5, Section 5: Manuscript Optional: The use of manuscripts are optional in all Oral Interpretation categories. Judges are not to base their final judgments on use or non-use of manuscripts.” “Article 5, Section 14: The purpose of Storytelling is to give students the opportunity to develop the art of creating a mood wherein a spoken narrative transports the audience to the time and place of the story being recounted. A storyteller is a narrator - not an actor or actress - and although gestures, pantomime, movement, and characterization are not barred, they must be used with restraint. The focus of the presentation must be on the narrative, with the teller acting as a presenter and not a performer. The teller must clearly grasp and convey the meaning of the tale. The judge should rate highly the mechanics of superior speaking: fluency, vocal variety, articulation, eye contact, gesture. The presentation should be extempore, not read. No book or script may be used. The storyteller may speak standing or seated in a chair or combination of both. NO STOOLS ARE PERMITTED. The chair used in performance must be provided by the site host. No props or visual aids may be used. "When the teller has been successful in bringing the tale to life, the telling will seem entirely natural, almost effortless". “Article 5, Section 3: With the exception of Non-Original Oratory and Readers Theatre, all selections in Storytelling, Serious Reading, Poetry Reading, Humorous and Duet must be cuttings from novels, short stories, plays or poetry that are copyrighted and published in either electronic or print form.” Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 154

Format Alteration for Oral Interp: Add a rubric to the Oral Interp Festival. This is a modified festival format, which uses the rubric, but uses a numeric scoring system to determine “Superior with Distinction”, “Superior”, “Excellent”, and “Good” ratings. Awards would only be given for “Superior with Distinction” and “Superior” ratings. There would be no change in how Team Excellence Awards are currently decided. Each of the 5 criteria used on each rubric will be worth 1 point for Superior, 2 for Excellent, and 3 for Good. Each judge on the 3-judge panel would score each festival entry. The score ranges for each tier are as follows: Superior with Distinction – 15 points Superior – 16-21 points Excellent – 22-30 points Good – 31-45 points INTERPRETATION RUBRIC CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION

place at both the Class AA & the Class A combined Basketball Tournaments. This change would be implemented during the 2019-2020 school year. Following discussion, it was moved by Dr. Jason Uttermark, seconded by David Planteen, to approve as a second reading the proposed changes to the fine arts activities handbook for the 2017-18 and 2018-19 school years. The motion passed 7-1 with Dr. Brian Maher casting the dissenting vote. Conduct a second reading on the Contract Approval and Signatory Authority Policy Following discussion, it was moved by Dr. Maher, seconded by Dr. Roger Bordeaux, to approve as a second reading the following Contract Approval and Signatory Authority Policy: Contract Approval and Signatory Authority Policy 1. PURPOSE: The purpose of this policy is to ensure a consistent procedure through which the SDHSAA Executive Director will negotiate and enter into agreements with third-parties and to provide guidance to employees on the standards of conduct that govern the SDHSAA relationships with and engagement of third-parties to include corporate partners. This policy protects SDHSAA employees by bringing consistency to the contracting process and ensuring that the SDHSAA Board of Directors is aware at all times of the terms of its agreements with third-parties. 2. APPLICABILITY: This policy applies to any agreement between the SDHSAA and any third-party, including, but not limited to, corporate contracts, non-disclosure agreements, sales and purchasing contracts and orders, leases, clinical contracts, consulting agreements, distribution agreements, license agreements, employment agreement, board of director agreements, and vendor agreements. 3. SCOPE: This policy establishes: requirements for the review of Contracts by the Board of Directors and guidelines for signature authority. This policy is applicable to all employees of the SDHSAA. Review and approval of Contracts must be completed by the Board of Directors at a scheduled board meeting. 4. POLICY STATEMENT: The SDHSAA must have written agreements/contracts in place with all third-parties, including corporate sponsors, with which it does business. All agreements must be fair and reasonable. Oral agreements are not authorized regardless of whether there has been a monetary exchange. 5. PERSONNEL ACTIONS: The Executive Director is authorized to approve personnel actions including hiring staff to fill vacancies in Board approved positions, as well as to handle terminations and disciplinary actions. 6. CONTRACT APPROVAL: The Executive Director is authorized, without specific board preapproval, to enter into contracts for the lease or procurement of goods and services, of less than $5,000 per transaction so long as within the approved budget. However, any contract relating to a Significant Commitment, as defined in (A) through (G) below, must be reviewed and approved by the SDHSAA Board of Directors prior to being Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 159

signed by the Board Chairman and the Executive Director. A Significant Commitment is one that meets any ONE of the following criteria: A. Is required by the Association’s existing Constitution, Bylaws or adopted operational policy. B. The Board of Directors or a committee thereof has specifically required prior approval. C. Involves use of the SDHSAA name by another entity particularly through affiliation or endorsement. D. Involves a joint venture with another entity, profit or non-profit, including monetary affiliations. E. Creates a subsidiary or other type of controlled entity. F. Creates a gift or pledge of more than $500 but not including reoccurring or smaller gifts such as donor society memberships and benefit sponsorships. G. Involves an expenditure of $5,000 or more, is longer than twelve (12) months, or is outside budgeted and approved general expenditures. 7. SIGNATURE AUTHORITY No person is authorized to sign any Contract on behalf of the SDHSAA unless: such Contract has been reviewed and approved in accordance with this policy and its procedures, and such individual has signature authority in accordance with this policy and procedures. Furthermore, no contract shall be binding upon the SDHSAA unless it has received prior approval by the Board or is otherwise consistent with the provisions hereof. 8. RETENTION: The SDHSAA Executive Director must also maintain original hard copies of all agreements in a centralized location and have the ability to track and audit compliance with the terms of its agreements/contracts. Any proposed changes must be reported to the Board of Directors at the next scheduled meeting. 9. FAILURE TO COMPLY: Individuals who enter into commitments or agreements without the requisite authority may be personally liable for the obligations assumed under such agreements. Assistant Executive Director Krogstrand expressed concern regarding wording of part 6 G. of the proposed policy. He has concerns that the language may hinder the SDHSAA staff’s ability to negotiate contracts. The motion passed 8-0. Conduct a second reading on the Board Conflict of Interest Statement The Board approved as a first reading during their Board meeting of November 2, 2016, the following Board Conflict of Interest Statement: BOARD MEMBER CONFLICT OF INTEREST The Board of Directors of the South Dakota High School Activities Association requires that each person elected to membership on the Board of Directors be without interest which might jeopardize the performance of their duties which are in the best interest of the SDHSAA and interscholastic athletic and fine arts programs in general.

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 160

A board member will not have any direct pecuniary interest in a contract which could be affected by a decision of the South Dakota High School Activities Association. A direct pecuniary interest is any decision by a SDHSAA board member that inures to the individual’s private gain or loss or to the private gain or loss of a business associate. Conflicts of interest would include but are not limited to direct financial interest in a company or product furnishing any labor, services, materials, supplies or equipment. If a member of the SDHSAA Board of Directors should have or develop a conflict of interest, such person shall immediately identify the conflict and remove himself or herself from any discussion or action involving the matter in conflict unless the conflict is waived by 2/3 of the elected members of the Board. Following discussion, it was moved by David Planteen, seconded by Moe Ruesink, to approve as a second reading the Board Conflict of Interest Statement. The motion passed 8-0. Conduct a first reading on the Document Retention Policy It has been suggested that the SDHSAA adopt a Document Retention Policy. With the help of a CPA firm, staff recommended the following: SDHSAA DOCUMENT RETENTION POLICY (Updated May 2017) The Association records of the SOUTH DAKOTA HIGH SCHOOL ACTIVITIES ASSOCIATION (hereafter the “Association”) are important assets. Association records include essentially all records you produce as an employee, whether paper or electronic. A record may be as obvious as a memorandum, an e-mail, a contract or a case study, or something not as obvious, such as a computerized desk calendar, an appointment book or an expense record. The law requires the Association to maintain certain types of Association records, usually for a specified period of time. Failure to retain those records for those minimum periods could subject you and the Association to penalties and fines, cause the loss of rights, obstruct justice, spoil potential evidence in a lawsuit, place the Association in contempt of court, or seriously disadvantage the Association in litigation. The Association expects all employees to fully comply with any published records retention or destruction policies and schedules, provided that all employees should note the following general exception to any stated destruction schedule: If you believe, or the Association informs you, that Association records are relevant to litigation, or potential litigation (i.e., a dispute that could result in litigation), then you must preserve those records until the Legal Department determines the records are no longer needed. That exception supersedes any previously or subsequently established destruction schedule for those records. If you believe that exception may apply, or have any question regarding the possible applicability of that exception, please contact the Executive Director or the Comptroller. From time to time the Association establishes retention or destruction polices or schedules for specific categories of records in order to ensure legal compliance, and also to accomplish other objectives, such as preserving intellectual property and cost management. Several categories of documents that bear special consideration are identified below. While minimum retention periods are suggested, the retention of the documents identified below and of documents not included in the identified categories should be determined primarily by the application of the general guidelines affecting document retention identified above, as well as any other pertinent factors.

Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 161

(a) Tax Records. Tax records include, but may not be limited to, documents concerning payroll, expenses, proof of deductions, business costs, accounting procedures, and other documents concerning the Association’s revenues. Tax records should be retained for at least six (6) years from the date of filing the applicable return. (b) Audit Records: Audit records include, but may not be limited to, bank statements, invoices, vouchers, voided checks, credit memos, ticket manifests, tickets and passes, payroll registers. monthly close records, participation fees, unclaimed property, team expenses forms, and sub-state financial reports should be retained for at least six (6) years. Audited financial statements and equipment records should be retained permanently. (c) Employment Records/Personnel Records. State and federal statutes require the Association to keep certain recruitment, employment and personnel information. The Association should also keep personnel files that reflect performance reviews and any complaints brought against the Association or individual employees under applicable state and federal statutes. The Association should also keep all final memoranda and correspondence reflecting performance reviews and actions taken by or against personnel in the employee’s personnel file. Employment and personnel records should be retained for six (6) years. (d) Board and Board Committee Materials. Meeting minutes should be retained in perpetuity in the Association’s minute book. A clean copy of all Board and Board Committee materials should be kept for no less than three years by the Association. (e) Press Releases/Public Filings. The Association should retain permanent copies of all press releases and publicly filed documents under the theory that the Association should have its own copy to test the accuracy of any document a member of the public can theoretically produce against that Association. (f) Legal Files. Legal counsel should be consulted to determine the retention period of particular documents, but legal documents should generally be maintained for a period of ten years. (g) Marketing and Sales Documents. The Association should keep final copies of marketing and sales documents for the same period of time it keeps other Association files, generally three years. An exception to the three-year policy may be sales invoices, contracts, leases, licenses and other legal documentation. These documents should be kept for at least three years beyond the life of the agreement. (h) Development/Intellectual Property and Trade Secrets. Development documents are often subject to intellectual property protection in their final form (e.g., patents and copyrights). The documents detailing the development process are often also of value to the Association and are protected as a trade secret where the Association: (i) derives independent economic value from the secrecy of the information; and (ii) The Association has taken affirmative steps to keep the information confidential. (i) Contracts. Final, execution copies of all contracts entered into by the Association should be retained. The Association should retain copies of the final contracts for at least three years beyond the life of the agreement, and longer in the case of the publicly filed contracts. (j) Electronic Mail. E-mail that needs to be saved should be either: (i) printed in hard copy and kept in the appropriate file; or (ii) downloaded to a computer file and kept electronically or on disk as a separate file. The retention period depends upon the subject matter of the e-mail, as covered elsewhere in this policy. Questions about this policy should be referred to the Comptroller who is in charge of administering, enforcing and updating this policy. Following discussion, it was moved by Sandy Klatt, seconded by Jim Aisenbrey, to approve as a first reading the Document Retention policy. Annual Meeting Bulletin

Page 162

The motion passed 8-0. Conduct a first reading on the Proposed 2017-2018 Budget Comptroller Isaac Jahn presented as a first reading the proposed 2017-2018 budget. Following discussion, a motion was made by Moe Ruesink, seconded by Dr. Brian Maher, to approve as a first reading the proposed 2017-2018 budget. The motion passed 7-1 with Sandy Klatt dissenting. NOTE: Please see Exhibit A.

PLEASE NOTE: Member schools should be reminded to budget for catastrophic insurance, dues, and subscription and postage every year. Consider alternative schedule for 9 man and 11B football During the April 18, 2017, meeting of the Board of Directors, Kasey Hanson, VP of the SD 4-H Rodeo, Inc., and Don Bergeson, President of the SD 4-H Rodeo, addressed the Board with concerns of the scheduled start of football practice starting the 2017-2018 school year. As most are aware, the change in the football schedule was brought about by the recommendation of the Calendar Committee with the calendar being adopted by the Board of Directors. The change facilitated the playoff dates being a week apart as a risk minimization practice. While the concerns were noted, no further action was taken. Chairman Morford requested this topic be placed back on the agenda for further consideration. Superintendent Dr. Joel Price and Principal/Athletic Director Mr. Tom O’Boyle representing St. County High School addressed the Board and asked them to consider options to allow for the first football games in all 9 man classes and class 11B to be played on a date other than Friday, August 18, 2017. Following much discussion, it was moved by Dr. Roger Bordeaux, seconded by Sandy Klatt: Allow an earlier practice start date other than Monday, August 7, 2017, to accommodate the ten day practice rule. 1) It would be the responsibility of the schools involved to set the one day earlier practice start date which would best accommodate their school. Ex. Should a school determine that one day be Friday, August 4th, they could not practice again until Monday, August 7th. 2) It would be up to the schools affected to resolve any conflict which may arise with a change of date for their first game, it would not be a problem for the SDHSAA to resolve. This would give complete control to the member schools. 3) The host school would have to contact the assigned game officials to verify that they would be available to work the game on a date other than what has been previously assigned. 4) The host school would have until July 15th to notify the SDHSAA office of the game change as after that date, no change would be allowed. 5) This is an accommodation for one year only. The motion passed 6-2 with Moe Ruesink and Jim Aisenbrey dissenting.
