K12 Districts Extend Learning with ANGEL LMS

For Immediate Release - June 29, 2006

ANGEL Learning names select K12 districts that recently adopted the ANGEL Learning Management Suite.

Indianapolis, Ind. – June 29, 2006 – ANGEL Learning developer of the ANGEL Learning Management Suite, a simple, yet powerful suite of web-based teaching and learning tools, today identified select K12 school districts that have recently adopted ANGEL LMS. As K12 institutions extend the boundaries of traditional education by adding online components to face-to-face courses and by offering courses and professional development online, ANGEL’s ease of use makes it possible for all K12 educators to develop and deliver a rich web-based curriculum without previous experience and with little training.

New K12 ANGEL adopters named either chose ANGEL as their first LMS or switched to ANGEL from a competing system:

• Hamilton Southeastern Schools, Fishers, IN – The fastest growing school district in the State of Indiana, HSE is a high-performing suburban school district serving approximately 14,000 students.
• Metropolitan School District of Perry Township, Indianapolis, IN - Identified by Money Magazine as one of the best 100 public school districts in America in affordable communities, MSD Perry Township serves more than 13,000 students.
• COOR Intermediate School District, Roscommon, MI – COOR ISD serves six public school districts by providing services that allow local school districts regardless of size to have access to quality personnel, services and programs that they could not afford individually.

A first-time LMS adopter, MSD Perry Township “teachers were very excited about the opportunities for expanding learning outside the four walls of our classrooms, as well as the sharing of professional development resources and collaboration that ANGEL will encourage,” said Jane Pollard, technology staff developer, MSD Perry Township. “We see lots of possibilities for addressing the diverse learning needs of our students in Perry Township with ANGEL and are really looking forward to exploring a variety of applications with this format.”  

K12 educators find that ANGEL is different from other offerings, with an inherent ease of use that allows instructors to quickly learn to personalize and empower the learning process, engage their students and extend their classrooms 24/7 with very little training. ANGEL’s complete suite of web-based tools easily automates routine tasks and increases efficiencies so teachers have more time for student interaction and teaching. Collaboration, communication and resource sharing are enhanced with ANGEL’s integrated learning object repository, secure mail and parent portal.

“ANGEL’s easy to use, powerful features are key to the many recent K12 ANGEL adoptions,” said Ray Henderson, chief products officer, ANGEL Learning. “K12 teachers are extremely busy and can find it difficult to make time to learn most new technologies, but ANGEL’s ease of use puts the technology in the background and brings the many capabilities teachers gain and ANGEL’s positive impact on learning to the forefront.”
