Kurzweil Educational Systems Joins Cambium Learning™ Family of Companies

Have you heard the news? Kurzweil Educational Systems has joined Cambium Learning, Inc., an education company founded on the belief that all students, including at-risk, economically disadvantaged and special student populations can achieve at a high level. The company provides research-based, culturally responsive and proven instructional materials, services and technology to help educators raise the achievement level of challenged learners. Other Cambium Learning companies include Sopris West Educational Services and Metropolitan Teaching and Learning, both nationally recognized leaders in education as well.

This is very exciting news for Kurzweil Educational Systems. As the leading provider of reading, writing and learning technologies for struggling students, and individuals who are blind or visually impaired, the strategic fit between Cambium Learning and Kurzweil Educational Systems is an excellent one.

What does the news mean to you, our valued customer? It means that Kurzweil Educational Systems can grow more quickly and reach more students, faster with its two popular product lines—Kurzweil 3000^® and Kurzweil 1000—and with future new products. In addition,

• Our customers will remain our top priority.
• We will continue to deliver high quality products and services.
• And we will continue to serve the K-12, post-secondary and post-graduation markets.

In other words, we have a new parent, but we will be the same, reliable company dedicated to developing innovative products that make a real difference in students' and individuals' lives.
