Armada group and ALT Linux company are happy to release School Server distribution, based on ALT Linux OfficeServer technological base and targeted at schools and other educational institutions. This release of School Server is an extended version of a server suite for educational institutions that was developed for the government contract in the end of 2008. The distro has no version number - that signifies the beginning of a new line of distributions.

ALT Linux has published Software Development Kit which was used to create school Linux distributions.
