The Missouri Senate has given initial approval to a revised bill that would change how disputes with MSHSAA are handled. Lawmakers voted 92 to 39 to create a governor-appointed appeals commission that would serve as a final step after schools and families exhaust the current process. The panel would focus on student transfer eligibility cases and issues involving contests and procedures. The commission would operate under DESE, with all decisions final. The measure now heads to the governor’s desk.
