A school board in South Dakota has agreed to implement changes aimed at making sports teams at a high school in Rapid City more inclusive of American Indian students and others.

The parents of three Indian students last year complained about the makeup of teams at Central High School. The Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights was looking into the claims but dropped an investigation when the school board agreed to make changes and adopt a policy against racial harassment, The Rapid City Journal reports.
