Bound Success Stories: Activity Registration

All-In-One Integration, No More Chaos: Hastings High (NE) Simplifies Activity Registration with Bound

“It's been absolutely amazing. I can't even quantify the number of hours that it has saved us in the activities office.”

Tracy Douglas  | Hastings High Activities Director

Systematic integration.

As Activities Director at Hastings High School (NE), Tracy Douglas faced an annual scramble: scattered spreadsheets, multiple tools, and last-minute paperwork. Bound offered a single place to manage registration and documents, reducing duplication and cutting down the stress on a small office.

“The world before [Bound was] just a lot of spreadsheets, a lot of different programs, just trying to keep track of everything that we do in the activities department. It was overwhelming my assistant and I. We'd have multiple tabs open on the computer, trying to keep this spreadsheet for that, this spreadsheet for that.”

Now with Bound, Tracy and her assistant breathe easy each year, knowing that everything's in one place.

After rolling out Activity Registration in Bound, Tracy’s team brought forms, eligibility, and communication into one workflow.

No third-party hopping, no paper chase, and far fewer late-night catch-up sessions.

“I was sold that the best feature was facility registration [and] management, but now that we've done activity [registration], I was like, "Wow, this is top-notch."

"Instead of having to go to a third party site to take care of everything that we need to, it's all done right there in Bound.”

As she's made the transition, Tracy has greatly appreciated Bound's dedicated team of AD's-in-residence, as they understand the world she's living in and are committed to helping her through it.

“The support [has been great], you know, being able to talk to somebody immediately, not having to put in a help ticket and then wait for a response. Just being able to work with people that have done the job and have been in your shoes and and it's a lot easier to say, "Hey, here's what I'm dealing with." And then for them to know, "Yep, yep, I had that issue before. Here's what we need to do” [is so nice]."
