Synopsis :

Drawing on his experience as a school psychologist, It’s Always About The Children is a window into Charles Barrett’s passion for serving students and philosophical orientation to public education. Using anecdotes to illustrate theoretical constructs such as Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems Theory, behavioral consultation, non-discriminatory assessment, social justice, and systems change, this informative narrative is filled with effective strategies for clinical practice. To facilitate personal reflection and small group discussion, questions and Resources for Professional Learning are included at the end of each chapter. An excellent compendium for educators—particularly school psychology graduate students, faculty, and practitioners—this book will encourage and inspire individuals in their service to children, families, schools, and communities.
