In this episode of Saints and Scholars On-the-Go, Superintendent Kathy Mears explores art in Catholic schools with art teachers from three schools in the Archdiocese: Sacred Heart High School in Kingston, Mount Alvernia High School in Newton, and St. John Paul II Catholic Academy in Dorchester. Topics covered include how the Catholic faith influences and inspires art, especially in the classroom; addressing a student’s perception that they’re “bad at art,” and each teacher’s favorite art lesson to teach.
