From the Paper:

"Within today's society the idea of accomplishing the highest level of education is essential to succeed. Due to the gradual deterioration of the American education system the hope for a successful future for many appear bleak. This problem arises within the responsibilities of high level administrators, federal and state government who are financially supporting schools and their programs. The concept behind education programs within schools should not only set forth the ability to master reading skills, writing skills and mathematical problem solving, but also prepare each student from the primary and secondary levels with techniques in comprehending the high professional demands in the real world."
