Why We Do It
Achievement is an elusive thing. Achieving one thing leads to setting the next goal to achieve something else. When we achieve a goal, we develop a sense of confidence, pride and joy in our capabilities. At ZUNI we believe it is imperative that our students learn and discover how to raise their achievement in all areas of life, not just academics, but in becoming the creative, dynamic, positively contributing human being they were born to be. We do it because we care. We are a team of administrators, teachers, parents and learners who dared to step out and find a way to support all those we love and care about. We are a grassroots movement, promoting the passion for life-long learning, achieving, learning more and achieving more, not only as a student, but more importantly as a compassionate human being.
The Story of ZUNI Learning Tree
ZUNI began to take shape over fifteen years ago as I listened to an audio tape by Dr. Wayne Dyer
titled The Power of Intention. Dr. Dyer said, "Don't ask how, say yes and the
how will show up."
All those years ago, I dreamed of creating a company that would help many people in the world.
It would not create waste, fill landfills, or pollute water and it would be affordable to
everyone. In my mind, this
company would consist of family and other caring, vivacious inidividuals who truly wanted to
make a difference. At the time, I didn't know details about what the company would be or what it
would create. I just said,
"YES!" and went about my business.
From the seeds of 15 years ago we now have the "ZUNI
Learning Tree."
So, okay… how did I get from there to here? I was in business until my
thirties and then became a teacher.
I know that is backwards; most people become teachers first and then go into business, but
unconventional is sort of in my DNA! Education quickly became my passion! I served as a regular
classroom teacher, a teacher
for kids who were kicked out of public school due to behavior, as well as a special education
teacher in Fairbanks, Alaska, where I was privileged to provide support for 150 teachers, along
with 2500 students and their parents.
Little did I know that these experiences were watering and nurturing the seed to create
the business that I had said "yes" to so many years ago. My desire to support teachers – who
work so hard for what is often so
underappreciated – was the soil where the seed for the ZUNI Learning Tree was planted.
The
"Don't ask how, say yes and the how will show up" idea was beginning to grow. As with the
founders of many start-up
companies, I have been blessed to be surrounded by a group of conscientious, tenacious, – dare I
say – crazy individuals who believe in the mission of supporting teachers. Add in the 21st century
technology boom, and we were able to build an educational
platform that supports and makes it just a little easier for a teacher to breathe, a student to
learn, and a parent to know.
We live in a really great time! – Tina McCord, Founder of ZUNI Learning
