A child's parents request a conference with the art teacher and the regular classroom teacher because he earned a B in art class. The parents say that their son is very smart so he must be highly creative; they also are upset that this grade ruins his straight As. How could the teacher respond diplomatically to the parents' concerns?
A) "You know that being smart and being artistic are two entirely different things."
B) "Statistically speaking, children with good grades in the three Rs are not necessarily outstanding in art, music, or physical education."
C) "I understand your concern about your child's performance in art; there definitely are some things we can do to together to improve his performance in the class."
D) "You're absolutely right. Any child who is strong academically surely would excel in art."
