Long-Answer Response

1. Jordan’s parents think that his art is not as important as his academic education, which is why they send him to RAD. But in the end of the story, his success with his art and its placement on the yearbook cover is what makes his adjustment to the school easier. Without his art, Jordan might not have been able to find success at RAD. (Various chapters)
