    I had the same problem, only it was the speech teacher. She would keep kids
    late which would interfere with my class. I had decided not to make waves,
    and would gently remind the kids that they needed to be to class on time.
    Then came the day when she kept one of my students (who was behind to begin
    with due to absence) for the entire class period right before their art
    show. She told the student it was because "you're not doing anything
    important in art class anyway". I about came unglued. I informed her that
    the administrator, superintendent, and school board thought that what I did
    was important, and that students needed to be in their seats when my class
    began.
