UVALDE, Texas—The school police chief who made the decision not to immediately breach the classroom where a man with a gun was fatally shooting students was not punished on June 3 during the first meeting of the Uvalde, Texas, school district’s board of trustees since the May 24 shooting.

The board decided not to act against Pete Arredondo, the district’s police chief, during a closed-door part of the session while consulting with attorneys.
