[Portrait of Noriko Wright, information technology teacher]    Mrs. Noriko Wright, our Computer / Information Technology teacher, is a native of Japan. After moving to the U.S. in 1983, she was one of relatively few people at that time skilled in both accounting and computing, and while Bursar of a graduate school converted the financial and work-study offices from manual to computerized accounting. In 1997 she created the information technology program at New Hope Academy, designing the program and writing most of her own curriculum materials (which she hopes to publish). Her being largely self-taught has served her well in an ever-changing field, and she is in the process of adding exciting areas to the curriculum such as video editing and robotics.
      "Computer skills are already expected as a prerequisite for most good jobs, and this will be more and more true in the future. Also, figuring out how to get the result you want on a computer is a great way to exercise the mind. My students learn by doing." Visit her on the web at www.NorikoWright.com.
