I would find another home school family here in town and mabey talk to them. But as far as I know you have to do it yourself you cant have another person teach your children unless they are a liscenes teacher. They do have a few homeschool supply stores here in town and I think they have a yahoo group here in sioux falls for homeschooling to. I went and found this link for you http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SiouxFallsHomeschoolGroup/ you should join this group and mabey see what resorses you can get from some first hand homeschool moms :)
This is the link to the laws on it -

it makes mention of not teaching more then 21 students. so I am not sure if SD does require them to be your own children. I know other states do unless your a certified teacher. there is also no requirement for education level in SD which I found interesting. "Teacher Qualifications: None." is how they worded it. I would be interested in what you come up with.
I belong to a homeschool support group. We don't 'teach' our kids together. We get together, go and tours and outings. There are a few homeschool groups in the area.
Here is the one I belong to: www.sdhsa.org
A few other support groups in the area:

One that has Cooperative Group Classes:

Hope this helps. And good luck if you decide to homeschool :)
I heard this advertisement on the Christian Radio station I listen to just this morning and thought I would post it here in case any one was interested in it. From what they were saying you could call 1-877-2HOMEED and get a free kit for starting "homeschooling"
God Bless

Hello, I was interested in the possibility of Homeschooling my daughter, and I was wondering how to go about it? I would be looking for her to attend with some other homeschooled children, as I work full time and go to school myself. Thanks for any help!
