Naviance Named “Best of America” by Reader’s Digest Magazine

Pleasantville NY, April 10, 2006 -- Naviance, of Washington, DC, has been named “Best of America” by the editors of Reader’s Digest magazine. This celebration of the quirky, amazing and truly extraordinary is featured in the May issue, on newsstands April 18.

After speaking to hundreds of experts and ordinary folk, the editors tested, tasted and debated everything from the Best Sandwich to the Best Must-Have Gadgets to the Best Buzz Cut. The resulting list is organized in six categories — Legacies, Passions, Adventure, Innovations, Time Off and Connections.

“Our country is full of hidden treasures, creative products and inspiring stories that often don’t grab the national spotlight,” said Reader’s Digest Editor-in-Chief Jackie Leo. “We had great fun putting this lively and surprising issue together.”

“It’s an honor to be selected as ‘Best School Tool,’” said Stephen M. Smith, Naviance CEO. “Our goal has always been to listen and respond to the needs of school communities, and being identified as one of the country’s best innovators confirms that we’ve met that goal better than any other company in our market.”

Reader’s Digest “America’s 100 Best” can be identified by state or category on www.rd.com/boa where readers can nominate entries for next year’s collection.
