MERIDEN â The City Council will soon take up the Use of Force Study Committeeâs recommendation to form a police civilian review board tasked with providing an external review of use of force incidents.
The Use of Force Study Committeeâs 34-page report that included the recommendation was inserted in the councilâs Aug. 2 meeting packet and listed as a communication on that meetingâs agenda. The report included proposed language that would establish a civilian review board. However, that language had yet to be introduced to the council as a separate resolution for referral to one of its standing committees.Â

Test results for the 2021 Spring State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness showed declines across the state, especially in mathematics, according to results released Monday by the Texas Education Agency.
San Marcos Consolidated ISD was not immune from statewide STAAR result trends. In mathematics, scores show a majority of SMCISD students in third-eighth grades did not meet readiness standards. Scores in the approaches, meets and masters performance levels all declined from spring 2019 results the last year STAAR testing was administered.
SMCISD Superintendent Dr. Michael Cardona said he was disappointed that the TEA and U.S. Department of Education unnecessarily mandated standardized testing during a pandemic.
