Indiana Public Schools – Georgiana Geimer

Introduction

This case study of Indiana Public Schools is based on a June 2016 survey of Crisis Prevention Institute customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service.

“I think Nonviolent Crisis Intervention® training is structured well and the principles of instruction are just what our school needs.”

“CPI improved staff de-escalation skills, improved overall safety, and has become ingrained in our training.”

“Using CPI training has led to improved student outcomes, because of an increase in direct instruction time. (For instance, test scores, student grades, graduation rates, etc.)”
