The reasons for the real decline of American education are well known among those of us who can see clearly. Those who work within can be blind as bats regarding the real causes, because they participate in the real causes on a daily basis without even knowing it. For many of us, these dots don’t even need connecting, because they’re on top of each other at face value. However, for others these facts may be a firm slap in the face. If that’s the case, I hate to be the bearer of bad news for them, but fixing or reforming American education will never happen.
Therefore, tax money must be filtered away from public schools through the states, and given back to families to allow their children to teach themselves in online and alternative environments. Fortunately, more state law is allowing for this to happen. Soon, the brick-and-mortar schools and universities will be left for the mentally handicapped and the physically disabled, because the independently-thinking individual will have no need for such an environment and they haven’t in the past and already don’t. In fact, I wonder what will happen to the student population in schools when students and their families figure out they can graduate with an accredited online high-school diploma at the age of 15, and graduate from an accredited online university with a bachelors degree at the age of 18? If they figure this out too late, regret should be the only feeling they have.
Elimination of Illegal and Discriminatory Policy.
With the formal return of the Donald Trump administration (thankfully), the Federal Department of Education is wasting no time eliminating Diversity, Equity and Inclusion discriminatory programs, and it’s a long time coming. The simple fact that these were allowed to take hold in the first place and violate The Civil Rights Act of 1964 (among others), should be a direct admission that some enjoy the law, while others spit on it at the expense of Americans with White skin. In fact, all DEI policies are discriminatory toward everyone (regardless of skin color), given how they dumb-down and eliminate facts; to only replace them with political ideologies, feelings, communist/Marxist activism, and the people who embody those ideologies. For the jewish lobby; mission accomplished. That’s exactly what they want. However, for the home-schooling/home-learning family; they’re laughing at the people who are still attending these ideological and political battlefields.
The FDOE stated the following regarding their elimination of DEI policies:
WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Education has taken action to eliminate harmful Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives, including references to them in public-facing communication channels and its associated workforce. These actions are in line with President Trump’s ongoing commitment to end illegal discrimination and wasteful spending across the federal government. They are the first step in reorienting the agency toward prioritizing meaningful learning ahead of divisive ideology in our schools.
Following President Trump’s recent Executive Orders and initial guidance from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the Department removed or archived hundreds of guidance documents, reports, and training materials that include mentions of DEI from its outward facing communication channels. The Department also put employees charged with leading DEI initiatives on paid administrative leave. These review efforts will continue as the Department works to end discrimination based on race and the use of harmful race stereotypes, both within the agency and throughout America’s education system.Notable actions the Department has taken include:
Dissolution of the Department’s Diversity & Inclusion Council, effective immediately;
-Background: The Diversity & Inclusion Council was established following Executive Order 13583 under then - President Obama. President Trump has rescinded the Executive Orders that guide the Council and issued a new Executive Order, “Ending Radical and Wasteful Government DEI Programs and Preferencing,” that terminates groups like the Diversity & Inclusion Council. DEI documents issued and related actions taken by the Council have been withdrawn.
Dissolution of the Employee Engagement Diversity Equity Inclusion Accessibility Council (EEDIAC) within the Office for Civil Rights (OCR), effective immediately and pursuant to President Trump’s Executive Order “Ending Radical and Wasteful Government DEI Programs and Preferencing”;
Cancellation of ongoing DEI training and service contracts which total over $2.6 million;
Withdrawal of the Department’s Equity Action Plan;
Placement of career Department staff tasked with implementing the previous administration’s DEI initiatives on paid administrative leave; and
Identification for removal of over 200 web pages from the Department’s website that housed DEI resources and encouraged schools and institutions of higher education to promote or endorse harmful ideological programs.
Pursuant to OPM guidance, the Department will continue its comprehensive review of all agency programs and services to identify additional initiatives and working groups that may be advancing a divisive DEI agenda, including programs using coded or imprecise language to disguise their activity. Careful review of all public sites and media channels for DEI language and resources will also continue.
Irreversible Enrollment Decline.
There are endless signs that American brick-and-mortar schools are continuing to decline in enrollment, and they’re even being consolidated and eliminated. In an article written by M. Ray Perryman titled; THE ECONOMIST: Shrinking schools; in November of 2024, he stated:
It’s a fact of U.S. demographic life that school enrollments are likely to trend downward. The population is aging, birth rates are dropping, and consequently there are fewer school-aged children. The National Center for Education Statistics estimates that enrollment fell by 2.1% between 2017 and 2022, with a decline of 5.5% projected through 2031. The changes vary dramatically across the country, with drops exceeding 13% in California, Hawaii, New Mexico, New York, and West Virginia through 2031 projected. Texas is forecast to fall by only 0.9% (but will expand modestly if current migration patterns persist).
There are also the declining numbers of students from these environments due to school choice, state legislation and laws that are giving back tax-money control to families who decide to not attend public schools. These numbers below are from 2022 and 2023:
The National Education Association even highlights these teacher shortages and staff declines in the education profession dating back to 2022:
The Bio-Weapon Impact.
Predictably, the one element that exists in this equation that demographic analyst’s leave out (as most in the mainstream wave-length of thought tend to leave out too), is the depopulation agenda with the “COVID” jab rollout beginning in the fall of 2020.
There is no doubt that this rollout within the American schooling system (both public and private), has played a massive roll in the consolidating of school buildings via the lowered population among those who injected themselves. This number will not get better with time. It will continue to decline rapidly, for both students and staff specifically. The mainstream is also likely to blame the age of school buildings and their ancient infrastructure as the reason for school-building consolidation and the need to continue to group students together in other district buildings; when in fact the cause is far more serious.
When the evil propaganda is thick, like in the state of Ohio, and they’re running internet, TV and radio adds like the one below, it shows a serious and insulting disconnect from this deadly reality:

Regarding the above story, 30-year-olds don’t die of ovarian cancer unless there is a direct cause of said cancer, and lets face it, she looks like she was a “COVID-jab team player” does it not?

A Massachusetts high school teacher above has also passed away of ovarian cancer recently at the age of 38.
A Little Rock, Arkansas teacher was also found dead this month in one of his own school-building bathrooms.
While the “COVID” shots are continuing to take their intended toll, the mainstream media and search engines are most assuredly limiting the stories of educator deaths. Many of these educator deaths (specifically those who work within university and college settings) are sometimes only relegated to an email announcement that is passed around faculty members, calling specifically for “privacy” and to not reach out to the media. However, some of them make the news and local news papers, including this one in the town where I live and it’s university Miami University. Yet ,the cause of death is suspiciously not mentioned.

He’s not the only professor to die either, just within the month of January in 2025.
Sexual Crime, Pedophilia and Neglect.
Other reasons for the declines in student and staff interest in attending public schools has to do with the ever-present consistency of sexual crime, pedophilia and neglect by staff members.

American Schools Harboring Illegal Aliens.
The Chicago Public Schools came out recently (as have others in public and written statements) telling ICE and other law enforcement departments that they intend on protecting and hiding their illegal staff and students from legal deportation:
Fortunately, some teachers see the light and want illegal aliens removed.
The Michigan Department of Education is also pushing back against federal immigration policies, promising to “educate” all children regardless of their citizenship status, defying new executive orders. Dave Bondy in Michigan revealed this memo on X:
Ladies and gentlemen, this isn’t going to improve. These environments are as far from learning academies as you can possibly imagine. They’re indoctrination, brainwashing and torture camps; as you’ve heard me say on my show American Education FM, from the start.
Everyone who works within (by in large), are brainwashed with an ideology that ignores the right thing to do. They trust government (COVID rollout and DEI agendas), they’re communistic (law breaking and all falling in line; i.e., deportation topic, “COVID,” DEI etc.) and they’re falling for it every time regardless of the consequences (death, a lack of interest, dissatisfaction, illegality, discrimination, bigotry etc). They’re failing to learn what has caused this decline in manpower and interest, and they’re tripling down on their past and current actions.
You can remove all of the communist policies you want out of schools, but they’re too imbedded within the paperwork, laws, and specifically the mind-frames of those who work within American education. The real problem exists between the ears of school employees. That variable will never be eliminated.
We are living through the collapse of American brick-and-mortar schools, and the decline of those who want to attend as both students and staff; yet, some to this day, still cannot see it—even when these facts are staring them right in the face.
It’s too late to reverse course. These are not recipes for a successful business, nor a business that can stay afloat.
A list of healthy, accredited, home-learning alternatives can be found on my website AmericanEducationFM.com under the Education Documents tab and also HERE.
As I say all of the time; if a child can read and write, they can teach themselves.
