School Notes
- Normative Services Prep School offers an array of gender-specific services for today's at-risk and adjudicated youth.
- Normative is a coed JCAHO-accredited treatment and educational facility for at-risk and adjudicated delinquent youth.
- Normative focuses on the confrontation and redirection of negative behavior while recognizing desired, positive behavior.
- Throughout a student's stay, he or she is challenged to analyze failures and experience success in nearly every area of life.
- We have six main residential sites on our large, rural campus.
- Four are for males, two are for females.
- Each modern, well maintained residence is developed to look and feel as much like a family home as possible.
- Each residence has staff members who are assigned only to that site, with staff working on shifts throughout the 24-hour day.
- This provides for the development of a close personal 'home team' at each site, with ample backup and input from other teams to form a solid, caring community.
- In addition to the team at each residence, NSI has a large support staff that regularly interacts with the house teams to provide all of the needed services to meet our students' needs.
