More than $100B Targeted To Improve Student Achievement and Teacher
Effectiveness

NORCROSS, Ga., April 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Simtrol, Inc. (OTC Bulletin
Board: SMRL), an innovative developer of enterprise-class software solutions
that manage the extended network of connected devices, commented today that
the company is well-positioned to benefit from the more than $100 billion in
Education stimulus funds that are part of the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009.  The ARRA provides funds across many
education-specific initiatives intended to boost student achievement and
teacher effectiveness by targeting improvements in areas such as technology,
professional development, collection and use of data, and modernization of
facilities.

"In order to achieve maximum results, ARRA-funded solutions should be
innovative, scalable and sustainable - objectives perfectly in line with our
capabilities," commented Oliver Cooper, Simtrol Chief Executive Officer. 
"Simtrol's software provides data that help school districts maximize the use
of technology to improve student achievement and to strategically identify
opportunities for professional development.  Our software also enables
districts to minimize energy consumption and streamline maintenance activities
of technology-rich classrooms, thereby lowering operating costs for the
schools while advancing the 'green' initiatives of the stimulus package.  I am
excited about Simtrol's opportunity to contribute to the educational reform
efforts currently underway."
