Tech Integration Online Curriculum NOW Free!

A parent at our school sent me a heads-up from a company called SAS that has now made their online curriculum available free of charge to all schools. Here's a blurb from their site:
"SAS Curriculum Pathways is a free Web-based software designed to enhance student achievement and teacher effectiveness by providing online curriculum resources in all the core disciplines: English, math, science, social studies/history and Spanish. Appropriate for middle schools, high schools, community colleges, virtual schools, home school, and other teaching and learning environments."
I requested a free subscription for our school and their online lesson plans and web resources look pretty great for a school looking to get serious about technology integration. The Writing Reviser is a particularly neat feature, as well as the Math Interactives. You can watch demos of these features here: http://www.sas.com/govedu/edu/curriculum/demos.html
It has won several awards, including from Technology and Learning, a resource I trust.
