Ignorance Has Damaged Education

Feb. 2025 Blog: Know what has damaged Education in America?

By Deborah Parker, Pres. FVYD

Largely it is Ignorance…. and

There is no excuse for it- when we have the simple tool and program needed to bring real EASY changes into all our classrooms to empower our students. This will change Public Education forever! Do you think that student numbers  30:1 teacher is a very large classroom for one teacher? 

It would be real hard for our wonderful teachers today in this 30/1 classroom trying to teach that large a group 40+% not reading. And…with all their chronic disruptions due to –assessment, behavior & just missing school Absenteeism—is it truly due to chronic ill health or problematic school-life with bullying or a struggling homelife because their one or more parents may not read either  and/or have to work 2 jobs due to high cost of living. Do not blame them—for our kids school struggles.

Alternatively, when all the kids in that same 30/1 Middle School class are ALL able to use their Reading Skills & are willing and able to learn effectively and therefore with peer equality- the story might be very different. -What that means is all these kids are READING- with fluency and comprehension!   And… soon at grade level. Believe me, what a difference that makes!. 

For a calmer classroom: To Save our Teachers too! 

In the short term, NOW, as we are losing those wonderful teachers in droves today–maybe this simple easy essential school program– is the one answer US DOE need to consider.  

It is the ONLY REAL SOLUTION for READING  RECOVERY & makes it very simple to get the job done.

Then, even with this big group in a class—with willing and able students, it might become probable to actually have a NICE day at schools & to have Teachers actually teach them something. Just to mention–when all the kids reading skills are recovered, they actually have smiles on their face and LOVE TO GO TO SCHOOL TO LEARN.  Don’t we all want that for them. Once recovered, they are SMART!  You will have to trust me on this, because it does not occur in Public Education today!

**That answer is here, www.myfuturevisioninc.com–spend a few minutes looking at all those testimonials i.e., PICTURES OF OUR SUCCESS – MAKE IT HAPPEN!

****Call the US DOE and tell them we–Future Visions Youth Dev. Inc a501c3 Non-profit does have their Answer! And yes, we will share it with all America Public Schools as an “essential program.” This recovery works in 15 min/12 weeks.

NOVEL IDEA with OLGA

BTW: Education Week put out an article to help: Elementary Students Can’t Manage Their Emotions. What Schools Can Do to Help!

I have a better idea—LETS FIX THE KIDS NEEDS

Again, I would like to see Teachers actually able to teach to kids who are comfortable in their classrooms, reading proficient at their grade level and also Peer equals. This is possible at or after starting 3rd grade– with new learning for Education Management. It is not our teacher’s job to help children cope. They can teach them sharing and kindness, manners and taking turns in Pre-K. 

What is currently happening is 40% of students after 2nd grade is they (kids) are struggling with ALL of the above. And… Teachers often daily have to work through all their 7-15/ for a 30 class of kids- with their individual learning limitations & their daily emotional struggles as well and what changes? NOTHING! Teachers get the blame for these kids failing and failing and by the way these kids are coping.  Its called “conditioned adaptive & avoidant behavior.” It is not always good! WHY? When we have that Answer to STOP ALL THIS! Truly! www.myfuturevisioninc.com Testimonials-Here is one from Olga Perez and ED-tech. she loved it!

Time Again for School Tax Increases

We can now dramatically reduce Education costs for direct Student Service with this “essential program”. This one “essential program’ that we have has proven itself to have successful results like no other in Education today! www.myfuturevisioninc.com, READ Testimonials.

”It will, “Recovery Students Reading Skills”– & reduce Education costs (& save our kids and teachers also).
In Education budgets each year, are we just paying for Education Management (growth?) each year? And…are our Teacher’s getting these same % raises each year also? And…

Are there a greater # more of children doing better in school? 

Today, with NAEP scores now ~45% READ WITH FLUENCY AND COMPREHENSION & at their grade level. How many of you are “ok” with that! When there are a large percentage remaining for years “at or below BASIC” reading level & they will remain there for life!
Have you asked what “BASIC READING” means (when 40% remain at 3rd grade “basic) for levels of reading and now your child is in 8th grade! Oh, he may be promoted to have a “vocabulary” of a 6th grader- to GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL but there is no reading proficiency or comprehension. 

And… you are all fine with that, still? —

Why? When we truly do have one solution! – A Single Unique Solution –that truly RECOVERS READING SKILLS!!!                                       

(Ours is not a literacy program).  It is a real “essential program” that works – & includes a PhD study with 9 pages of Reference Studies support. And it is right here-not in schools.       Education Mangers & the US DOE have not looked at it! Ask them why? That answer is likely because it works very well!

Indeed, we will just keep paying increasing School Budgets.

How much from States Education budgets (i.e. Taxes) can we reduce with this simple “essential program” when we have improved Reading efficiencies for all with a National program? With a simple (5-10) school Template built in one year and in all schools by two years the impact in schools will be dramatic. And what if…. We “Recovery the Adult Basic Readers” also with a free class in Career Centers soon for reading Adults.

www.myfuturevisioninc.com SAVE OUR KIDS! 

PARENTS: YOU & OUR KIDS DESERVE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO READ AS PEER EQUALS WITH THIS NEW PROGRAM. It takes 15 min./12 wks. & all will soon read at their grade level & with peer equality. Call your Superintendents. Ask them to look at this “ESSENTIAL program right here, right now! 207-236-4736.

WHEN CIVIL RIGHTS is not just TALK!

 It is time we mean what we say- Solutions Require Action!

We have the program that will bring Equality with READING & Peer Equality in the classroom. This is not Step #1. IT is STEPS # 1-5. Once these kids all fit in, there will be NO divide. Adults have created inequity and keep it going at home. WHY! Parent’s often have had similar problems of being bullied or bullying by middle school & experienced this very hard (now unnecessary) struggle at school also- since 3rd grade).

Since 1950’s Education Management has created that divide–calling our kids names like ADD and Dyslexia. Is that helpful when these Ed. Managers have no solutions & no cure other than to medicate or get Literacy programs? So… they keep trying to help these POOR kids read for decades. These poor kids are poor from our neglect to simply, “Recover their Reading Skills” (not at literacy program).–WE CAN do this “recovery” simply now! Then the kids become SMART once again.

We can simply & TODAY CHANGE THE FACE OF EDUCATION! &  TO DATE, NO ONE HAS LOOKED AT THIS PROGRAM SINCE IT WAS FIRST PRESENTED IN  FLA,1999 & MAINE IN 2000.(Ran formerly by Grant 1999-then waited 2000;2009,2012,2015,2019-21& 2025).

LOOK NOW…. www.myfuturevisioninc.com  Read Testimonials of Remarkable Success and/ or if you can not read LOOK AT THE PICTURES. We also have PhD Study DATA!
Shame on all of us! —(for my poor marketing skills) & you for your avoidance of this unique & wonderful program! NOW let’s promote a “essential program like no other “in every American Public School classroom & SAVE OUR KIDS.

FOR THE AUTHENTIC TRUTH-A LOVE STORY

FOR THE AUTHENTIC TRUTH: A LOVE STORY  OR… HOW TO WIN A WAR FIRST ON ILLITERACY! by D. Parker 

DeborahDeveloper of Youth Programs for Education & Health Promotions since 1991-2025

It appears that “the War Mongers of our Nation” do not read books to kick back and relax! Good books like C.J. Box or James Patterson even Zane Grey…These books have guns in them too but used for self-defense only. Know why now about 30% of Adults today– can’t read these books. One reason of many is–the Print is too small & they can only read a page or 2 at best before they give up or fall asleep. They are 3rd grade readers. Truly! So why not read LARGE PRINT–stigma? That a poor excuse! Truth is,I know it is more than that & I know how to fix READING & EQUALITY IN LEARNING in schools-with a 15 minute program for a few months & now they read!

***I can read quite well –after the first book I ever read. It was in college-1st book LOVE STORY! …then I wanted MORE! 

Right now in every State in our former peaceful Nation there is more than just one CRISIS LOOMING! And this one, like many of the others… no one knows about yet, because t,he Drama/ Trama in society now is unending! We should have known it was coming! Why do you all think TikTok is so popular! No wonder why- it is used for people to make faces and dance on, or to read and write just a few lines to humiliate others. While… 

…There are 40% & a growing number of students-in our current student population who cannot read (well)- with proficiency- past 3rd grade level. The 3rd grade reader speaks- 1-word-at-a- time & with no flow or understanding i.e. fluency or comprehension. Then these kids graduated HIGH SCHOOL with 6th grade Vocabulary. Education Managers tried for several decades to change this for those 12% in 1991. Then there were 15-17% in 2000, about 27% in 2012-& 40% in 2024. How many generations is that 2? Normally that would have been two generations–Today that is 1.5 generations-with our kids having babies at 33 & us in our late 60’s. That percent of change if we forecast to 2035–will be about 70% not able to read with fluency and comprehension. We will not need the only “sources of truth” we now have-BOOKS.

Food for Thought FFT: Books written before 2025 are the only source we have now or in the future that we can trust to have TRUTH IN THEM. As we welcome AI in 2025. 

From our view, there is no priority now bigger for our Nation or our economy OR FOR TRUTH–than to get our Population Reading BOOKS! We have that Answer and the Simple program to do this. …but it is still in the box and the manual on HOW TO USE IT is only in ONE MIND.
