“Are Texas parents satisfied with the progress their children are making in the public schools? Is Cynthia Tyroff’s philosophy of education working, or are substantive changes needed? That is the question before the Texas State Board of Education. Cynthia Tyroff is the Secondary Language Arts Supervisor (Grades 6-12) for Northside ISD, San Antonio, Texas. Tyroff is often quoted by the news media and has frequently testified at the Texas State Board of Education meetings. At the SBOE meeting on 2.13.08, she vociferously criticized the Substitute Amendment which was written by a group of traditional English teachers.” (02/28/08)
