Annemarie Wright (92;2001-M.A.Ed.) has been named one of the Jenks School District's "Site Teachers of the Year." Site teachers are eligible for consideration as "District Teacher of the Year," which leads to the "Oklahoma Teacher of the Year" competition.

The top district teacher will be announced on Feb. 2. Wright received her master's degree with high honors last May. At Jenks High School, she teaches advanced placement history and a student leadership class. She is married to ORU business professor Marshal (83;89-MBA).

Jim Stovall (81), co-founder and president of Narrative Television Network, was featured in a cover story for the Dec. 13, 2001, Wall Street Journal.

The article, written by Barry Newman, describes how NTN takes old TV shows and movies and, by adding narrative between lines of dialogue, helps the blind and those with poor vision "see" what's happening on the screen.

The Tulsa-based Emmy Award-winning NTN was founded 13 years ago.
