Voices from teachers, school leaders, and district administrators.
"During my first two years, we had over 300 office referrals and 150 out-of-school suspensions. After fully implementing these strategies — only two office referrals in six weeks."
"29 of our 35 schools were trained, affecting more than 11,000 children. We experienced a 16% decrease in suspensions and 9% increase in test scores. None of our schools are on the improvement list."
"Pioneer Continuation High School saw suspensions drop from 39% to 18%, in-house suspensions cut in half, and significant increases in state exit exam passing rates."
"Referral numbers for class disruption were reduced by 62% at our middle school. Our high school's referrals were lower than the rival school's for the very first time."
"Since my Differentiated Instruction training, I incorporated Randomization, Storytelling, and Entry/Exit Tickets. These strategies work powerfully with adult learners too."
"The training provided a discipline system that sets predetermined boundaries with a positive approach. Built on mutual respect — teachers can teach and students can learn."
"After 19 years as an educator, I finally have time to teach with care and compassion. My referrals have been eliminated. Students who could never meet benchmark standards are now making dramatic gains."
