If we met at ASCD+ISTE, if you heard me speak, if something I said made you pause, laugh, nod, breathe deep, or say, “Whew, that’s the thing right there,” this page is for you.

 

I’m Craig Aarons-Martin: educator, author, speaker, facilitator, and founder of CCM Education Group.

 

My work sits at the intersection of brave leadership, belonging, equity, identity, school culture, and the kind of truth-telling that helps people stop performing the work and actually live it.

Before You Go

Great and mighty things are possible when we stop trying to be impressive and start trying to be honest.
