“The chairman of the State Board of Education said there is insufficient time to seek input from Hispanic experts before new reading and writing curriculum standards for Texas public school students are adopted.

But with Hispanic children making up 47 percent of the 4.7 million students in Texas public schools, the board’s senior member Wednesday called the decision by her colleagues tantamount to malice.”*
