ToonDoo for Administrators

Administrators would like to connect with every teacher, faculty member, student, and parent. But the reality is that it's very unlikely. In a typical middle school that has 500+ students, 45+ teachers, 10+ faculty members, and at least 2 parents for each child, there's too many people and not enough time.

School administrators have to rely on single bursts of communication that go out to everyone. Often, these bursts are in the form of important announcements, rules and procedure reviews, and drill assessments. Not all of it is fun stuff.

ToonDoo is a tool administrators can use to make their bursts of communication fun and humorous. It's the world's fastest way to make cartoons and it can help make connections with everyone at a school. Whether its picking fun at a rule or procedure that shouldn't be broken (like skipping in the lunch line or putting gum on the stalls in the bathroom) or making light of a personal mistake in a staff meeting to start things off on a funny note (like shredding the wrong documents or accidentally leaving the PA system on too long so everyone in the school could here your best impression of American Idol contestants).

Making cartoons brings out the young person in all of us. It also helps students and faculty members see the lighter side of someone who tends to get stereotyped into being very serious and someone to avoid. ToonDoo can be a way to connect with students on their level.
