What’s Going On?
I just read some information about high school graduation requirements and another article on how states report their graduation rates (this article exposes how the information that is shared with the public is ‘not what’s actually going on’).
In the work that I’ve done with schools and educators it was apparent (back in the early 90′s) that there was a dropout rate of approximately 30%. At this point in time some educators who are being really honest with themselves are suggesting that that rate is closer to 50-60%.
And, from the graduation rates combined with the number of high school graduates that attend a 4 year college or university we know that high schools are only really reaching about 5 to 10% of it’s students.
Do you know of any business or industry where it’s acceptable to have a 50-60% defect rate? Do you know of any business or industry that could survive one day that has a process that satisfies 5-10% of it’s customers while producing below satisfractory results for the remaining 90-95%?
What’s going on that the United States of America would allow a process like this to exist when this process directly impacts the lives of several hundred million young people (let alone their families and the communities they live in)? Not just allow a process like this to exist but ‘we’ designed this system and we continue to support it?
I typically give people the benefit of the doubt – that people are good and their intentions are good. So, therefore we might say that the education system was designed with good intentions and with the ‘peoples’ best interest at heart.
Dr. Deming used to say that 85% of the problems come from the first 15% of the process. Design is a large part of the first 15% of the process. So, we can extrapolate from that that 85% of the problems the education system is experiencing comes from the first 15% of the process (the design).
That alone is a good enough argument for me to look at redesigning public education. There are other reasons as well – which I hope to write about over the weeks and months ahead.

“BREAKING NEWS”
===============
-Energy and Asset Technology, Inc. (EGTY) owns a global license to market
the genetically enhanced Global Cedar growth trees, with plans to
REVOLUTIONIZE the forest-timber industry.
These newly enhanced Globa| Cedar trees require only 9-12 years of growth
before they can be harvested for lumber, whereas worldwide growth time for
lumber is 30-50 years.
Other than growing at an astonishing rate, the Global Cedar has a number
of other benefits. Its natural elements make it resistant to termites, and
the lack of oils and sap found in the wood make it resistant to forest fire,
ensuring higher returns on investments.
T
he wood is very lightweight and strong, lighter than Poplar and over twice
as strong as Balsa, which makes it great for construction. It also has
the unique ability to regrow itself from the stump, minimizing the land and
time to replant and develop new root systems.
Based on current resources and agreements, EGTY projects revenues of $140
Million with an approximate profit margin of 40% for each 9-year cycle. With
anticipated growth, EGTY is expected to challenge Deltic Timber Corp. during
its initial 9-year cycle.
Deltic Timber Corp. currently trades at over $38.00 a share with about $153
Million in revenues. As the reputation and demand for the Global Cedar tree
continues to grow around the world EGTY believes additional multi-million
dollar agreements will be forthcoming. The Global Cedar nursery has produced
about 100,000 infant plants and is developing a production growth target of
250,000 infant plants per month.
Energy and Asset Technology is currently in negotiations with land and business
owners in New Zealand, Greece and Malaysia regarding the purchase of their popular
and profitable fast growing infant tree plants. Inquiries from the governments of
Brazil and Ecuador are also being evaluated.
Conclusion:
The examples above show the Awesome, Earning Potential of little
