Press Release Summary = Computer Automation Systems, Inc. forms customer panel from
school districts across the country to provide product, industry, and regulatory
input and offer guidance on the future development of the SEAS (Special Education
Automation Software) solution.

Press Release Body = Mountain Home, AR (July 17, 2006) - Computer Automation
Systems, Inc. (www.computerautomation.com), the nation's leader in special education
management systems, announced today the foundation of a Customer Advisory Board. The
Customer Advisory Board is a panel of Computer Automation customers from school
districts across the United States. The Customer Advisory Board will provide
product, industry, and regulatory input and assistance to Computer Automation, as
well as offer guidance on the future development of the SEAS (Special Education
Automation Software) solution. SEAS is currently in use in more than 1,500 school
districts in 31 states, and is the state-wide special education management solution
in AR and OK.

The representatives on the Customer Advisory Board come from districts ranging in
size from 100 to more than 4,000 special education students. "We wanted to put
together a good representation of our customer-base," said Darren Johnson, Director
of Marketing and State Relations. "We knew it was important to find representatives
from both rural and urban settings because we wanted a group that showed the
demographic and environmental differences of the districts we serve." The SEAS
program now serves well over 1 million IEP students nation-wide.

The first Customer Advisory Board (C.A.B.) Conference was held in Mountain Home, AR
June 27 & 28, 2006. Representatives from school districts in AR, AZ, ID, MS, ND, OK,
TN, TX, VA, WA, and WY were in attendance. The conference was a phenomenal success.
The C.A.B. was able to meet face-to-face to discuss such pertinent topics as special
education regulation changes (IDEA 2004), intervention strategies, current issues in
providing special education and related services, and varying solutions to these
issues from state to state. The Advisory Board also previewed upcoming functionality
enhancements to the SEAS program, and provided their feedback. Computer Automation
plans to hold a C.A.B. Conference at least once a year from this point forward.

Deby Robins, Director of Professional Services, explained how important this
conference was to the company. "We learned so much about the best way to present and
deploy new functionality to the program. We also got great input on how we can
continue to provide exceptional customer service and expand training opportunities
for our customers. But above all, it was wonderful to hear our customers sharing
ideas and information with each other." The Advisory Board members agreed. "It was a
wonderful opportunity to improve what we are doing and learn from others," said
Sandra Baecker, Instructional Officer for Appraisal & Compliance in Katy Independent
School District, Katy, TX. Clara Allred, Director of Special Programs for Gooding
Joint School District #231 in Gooding, ID commented "I left this conference
overflowing with usable information, new ideas, and a better understanding of the
process in other states."
