CARBONDALE, Ill., March 9 /PRNewswire/ -- SchoolCenter, the leader in strategic K-12 web solutions, announced today that they are a finalist in the 2010 CODiE Awards, presented by the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA).

SchoolCenter services go beyond traditional web-centric education solutions others provide.

SC Pro applies intelligence from 14 years of education technology experience to bring to education leaders a framework which is structured to meet their specific goals," said McCaffrey.
