The Wilson County School Board, east of Nashville, has voted to publicly censure a sitting board member after allegations of offensive comments to staff members.

Board member Wayne McNeese was accused of asking a district staff member for a "tongue kiss" on May 4, when a board meeting was scheduled at the Wilson County Schools main office, according to a May 28 complaint.
