Just got an email from my boys' highschool's deputy principal asking me to purchase an Adobe creative suite license (with student discount) for them so they can take part in art classes.
I've responded asking how we can ensure that kids who can't or won't run Adobe products on their computers (e.g. Linux users) will be accommodated by the school's arts programme. I asked them to promote the open source options, Gimp, Krita, & Inkscape which are, in the HS context, totally serviceable.
