Surrounded by the eccentric faculty of Truman High School, Mitch Carter wins the California Teacher of the Year award and immediately receives a tempting offer that may force him to leave his job.[2]
The film is shot in a mock documentary format. In fact, one of the teachers makes a reference to This Is Spinal Tap, one of the most influential films in the mockumentary format.
Director and screenwriter Jason Strouse was a high school English teacher when he made the film.[3]
