Without CutTime, we would be working in Google Sheets and teachers would be able to enter and manipulate the data with no guardrails, which means too many hands on the information.
Why CutTime Now?
Because the whole goal of leading a fine arts program is to teach and inspire students to develop a lifelong love of the arts.
Software is just software, right?! Not so fast! While it’s true there are multiple options for storing and managing your program’s data, next to none of these systems operate with the unique mind and soul of a fine arts administrator, educator, booster, student, guardian and volunteer.
That’s where we come in. We designed CutTime around your program’s data and day-to-day workflows so you will spend way less time figuring out how to get mundane stuff done and more time with your amazingly gifted humans (inside and outside the classroom).
Start with the time you can save and get back in a single day or week. Oh, and there is much, much, more on top of that. Keep reading and you’ll see why CutTime is a complete game changer for the fine arts education profession and beyond.
