Moses Lake School Board discusses, declines to pursue, flag policy

MOSES LAKE — Moses Lake School Board members decided not to pursue research on a possible policy governing the display of flags in district buildings. Board members discussed the question briefly at the regular board meeting Thursday, following a request from board member Paul Hill. Board chair Kevin Fuhr said the board discussed it sometime last year and board members had asked district officials to research it, but other events intervened and the board never pursued it. Hill said some districts in Washington have considered or adopted flag policies, some limiting displays to U.S. and state flags.
