In the quest to ensure that data-driven instruction is occurring, many have lost sight of the
importance of positive teacher-student connections to obtain that goal. Mistakenly, copious educators are attempting to achieve educational rigor without an adequate understanding of the need for genuine teacher- student relationships and other paramount strategies when educating students who are traumatized and labeled as “at-risk!” Maslow before Bloom is more than a catchphrase. During the presentation, Dr. Pharrams will provide attendees with best practices for reaching at-risk and traumatized students based on theory, research, and practice. His presentation is motivational, inspirational, and informational as he shares his life story of finding clothes in garbage dumpsters, neighborhood violence, and strategies he has implemented over the past 25 years as an educator. The intervention of educators in Dr. Pharrams’ life who understood the importance of establishing positive relationships was the catalyst that changed his life.
