The bill proposes the addition of a new section to South Dakota's education laws, allowing students who are enrolled in a school district and have enlisted in the South Dakota National Guard or any branch of the armed forces to wear military decorations during their graduation ceremonies. Specifically, students may wear a sash, stole, or other military decoration that has been issued to them by the respective military organization for this purpose.

This legislation aims to honor and recognize the commitment of students who serve in the military while they complete their education. By permitting the display of military decorations at graduation, the bill seeks to celebrate their service and achievements alongside their academic accomplishments.
