For over 45 years, PSI has been a pioneering force in Specialized Educational Support Services and School Health Programs. Our journey began when a visionary administrator of the Cleveland Diocesan Schools joined forces with a group of innovative school psychologists from Kent State University. This collaboration birthed PSI, driven by "outside-the-box" thinking, to address the diverse needs of students across the Cleveland Diocesan schools.

Since then, PSI has evolved into a comprehensive provider, committed to nurturing the "whole child." Today, our mission remains unwavering: to deliver top-tier educational services efficiently, fostering academic growth, positive attitudes, and healthy behaviors among students. With a proud track record of serving hundreds of thousands of students statewide, PSI continues to be at the forefront of educational excellence.

In late 2023, PSI forged a transformative partnership with ESS, further expanding our reach to meet the evolving needs of students nationwide. Through this collaboration, PSI reaffirms its dedication to enhancing the educational journey for every student, every day.
