The Texas GEAR UP State Conference is centered around creating opportunities for college bound students – from teachers, counselors, administrators, businesses, community partners and the students themselves. This year’s conference did not disappoint as stakeholders from across the State of Texas came to learn and refresh on proven practices and program innovations related to national college and completion goals. 
SaulPaul shared his music and message to a room full of parents of college bound students and educators. Drawing from his personal journey, shared about topics related to leadership and college graduation as well as advice on how to lead their children/students to success.
He ended his performance by emphasizing the importance of being there to motivate and support their children. He shared his song Mama and celebrated his “mama’s” influence on him towards his dream and goals for the future. There were several Texas states and cities represented and he looks forward to visiting the schools as he travels throughout Texas on his We Dream In 3D tour.
