The Art of Language is a class taught by Mr. Bey (now Mrs. Kulik and/or Mrs. Barr) in Room 201 (and/or room 203) in the Pod. It is known for being Language Arts, yet not Language Arts, because in Language Arts you actually learn Language, usually English.
Origin of the Term[]
The Art of Language was simply called Language Arts by all, including Mr. Bey, until 2003. In 2003, Mr. Bey was sued for $3 million for tarnishing the reputation of all Language Arts classes, as he does not actually teach language. He was forced to choose a new name, hence The Art of Language.
