OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (AP) — The governing body for the state’s third largest school district is looking into reversing a rule that prohibited complaints about school board members.

At issue is a Shawnee Mission school district policy regarding public participation at meetings.

The policy came under fire in November, when the board added school board members to the list of individuals that shouldn’t be publicly criticized.

The ACLU decried the change as “clearly unconstitutional.” Since then, three board members have retired or weren’t re-elected.

Board members tasked with reviewing the policy said Monday that they’d be willing to strike the ban on criticizing board members. But they also warned that official changes would likely take time, as the board continues to consult experts and collect public feedback.
