May 2009 Editor's Letter
By: Jill Pinheiro

While the Internet has certainly facilitated the search for finding what you need when you need it, we think having all of the purchasing information you need as a Christian school leader in one place, at your fingertips, is an even better resource. That's why we're pleased to once again present our Buyer's Guide, which brings together the companies serving the education market in an easy-to-use and handy format.

Since last year's guide, we have added 14 new categories, bringing our total to 137. That represents a very wide range of products and services designed for schools…every single thing you need to operate your school effectively and efficiently. We responded directly to your requests for information on specific segments in order to make this guide as useful as possible to you.

New categories this year include:

* Merchandising

* Testing/Assessment

* Library Automation

* Acoustics

* Access Control

* College Prep

* Indoor Air Quality

We also broke out our Curriculum category into individual subjects, to make it easier for you to find materials specific to English, Science, Art, Reading, Social Studies, and Math, in addition to General Curriculum programs.

I hope you'll find that this is your "go-to" resource throughout the year…the ultimate solution to all of your purchasing needs. And, you can find this complete guide online as well at www.cspmag.com.

I hope you'll continue to let us know if there are new categories we need to add to better serve you in future editions.  I'm always interested in hearing from you. You can reach me at jill@cspmag.com.

God Bless,
