For many a kid who grew up inclined towards the arts, this was a very real nightmare: Authority figures devaluing that which was most important to us. I’ve been lucky to have had a bunch of GREAT art teachers in my grade school days. THIS situation DID kinda happen to me a few times when the gym coaches were forced to play sub for a sick art teacher.
As a kid who counted the seconds until the high-water mark of Art class, it was pretty horrible. But in hindsight, I’m betting it was equally horrible for the poor coach suddenly trying to care about art class.
