Calvert School Education Services Selects Arbortext to Publish Curriculum

Ann Arbor, Mich., February 24, 2004 – Arbortext, the leading global
provider of automated publishing software, today announced that Calvert
School Education Services has selected its software to create and deliver
customized lessons, workbooks and other materials to students, educators,
parents and administrators.  As a result, Calvert expects to expand
course and service offerings.

Using Arbortext software as the foundation, Calvert School is planning to
create a Student Information System (SIS).  Expected to be operational
later this year, the SIS will enhance the students’ academic experience
by providing online access to complement Calvert’s curriculum.

“We are excited to work with Arbortext and believe their demonstrated
expertise in automated publishing will quickly improve Calvert School’s
operations,” said Jean C. Halle, President of Calvert School Education
Services, which provides curriculum to homeschools, charter schools,
cyber schools and other educational institutions.  “The new systems will
allow Calvert to expand the course and service offerings we provide.”

“Arbortext is pleased to be working with Calvert.  When students,
educators and parents are able to support each child’s unique strengths,
that child’s academic experience is more rewarding,” said Raymond
Schiavone, President and CEO for Arbortext.  “Arbortext’s ability to
automate the process of assembling and publishing content makes our
software especially useful to school systems that must publish fresh and
accurate educational materials to a number of audiences with varying
needs. We look forward to working with Calvert as they continue to
enhance their comprehensive education services offerings.”
