Free 'Office' word processing/spreadsheet programs
Compatible with Microsoft's suites

Free software for word processing
OpenOffice is a program with word processing, spreadsheets, and presentation software that is free. Its files can be opened in Office programs and vice versa. We use it at school and suggest it for our students who do not have access to the Microsoft Office suites. You can find it at openoffice.org. Students without access to high speed Internet at home can request a CD with the program for download by contacting Mrs. Cassity.
“OpenOffice.org is a multiplatform and multilingual office suite and an open-source project. Compatible with all other major office suites, the product is free to download, use, and distribute.”
