Idaho school district approves policy to create ‘content neutral’ classrooms. What does that mean?

BOISE, Idaho — The West Ada school board on Monday approved a revised policy that gives teachers new guidelines on what they can display in their classrooms.

The revision, which passed unanimously, was part of an update to the district’s policy on the duties and responsibilities of certified staff.

The policy lists items teachers can display — including the Idaho state flag and banners connected with curriculum, achievements or student work — but clarifies that the policy doesn’t limit teachers’ displays to what is on that list. It also said the district believes the American flag should be displayed in every classroom.
