Aiden Frankum | Shane Dawson | 16 | Junior | Open
Aiden never fit in. No matter how hard he tried, he just wasn’t as cool or as hip or as popular as anybody. Nobody really paid him much attention. He was too weird for everybody else. He was quirky, strange and bizarre. So one day, Aiden decided to make a video. He didn’t really know what of, he just always loved watching YouTube videos, and he decided to give it a shot. Ever since then, his viewers had shot up. People enjoyed watching him do bizarre things. Now he had two personas: the guy he was in school, the nerd, the geek, the loser. And the guy on the internet: the wacky, weird guy who’ll do literally pretty much anything. Only problem is, the people in school are now watching the videos. And he’s more popular than ever. But what would happen if the people found out that he doesn’t really act that weird when the camera’s not in front of him? Will he lose his viewers and his popularity? Or will he learn to pretend to always be wacky, even though there are moments when he wishes he could just be normal?
Jeremiah Davidson | Samuel Larsen | 17 | Junior | Open
Jeremiah has always been an optimist. With a firm belief in his religion and God, how could he ever worry about anything? That thought process didn’t change even after a few months prior when he found out that he had cancer. He was scared, of course. How could one not be? But he knew his fate was in God’s hands alone, and that this all must’ve been apart of His Master Plan. He tries to inspire hope in others, but he in no way urges people to believe in his religion. He agrees that everyone believes whatever they wish. However, he does wish sometimes that people did have a little more faith, even in the smallest of sense. Therefore everyone could be happy. But how long will his belief last? Will his faith run out while performing hours and hours of tiring chemo? When his hair falls out? When he becomes weak? Or will he keep hold to his strength and religion until his last final breath?
Joel Powers | Mike Bailey | 17 | Junior | Open
Joel is a screw-up. That’s what he’d always been known as, and that’s what he’ll always be known as. He can’t seem to do anything right. He tries and he tries over and over again, but nothing ever goes his way. Nothing ever happens. And no one seems to care. He’s not made fun of, really. And he has some friends. But he’s just so alone. He doesn’t have anyone who truly cares about him. His friends don’t take much notice of him, and the only relationship he’s ever been in, is the one with his hand. And honestly, Joel has given up. He knows for a fact by now that no matter how hard he’d work at something, he’d still fail. No one would ever care.
George Smithers | Matthew Lewis | 18 | Senior | Open
George was always the last person people expected to succeed. He was a nobody. He was a loser. He was a nothing. He was far from attractive, and he was a short and nerdy wimp. No one ever paid attention to him. And George realized this. Because of it, he has very low self esteem. He views himself as a nothing. As a loser. But everything changed once he returned for senior year. Over the summer, he had gotten braces to rid of his massive overbite, and he had grown out of his awkward stage. He was now attractive. More than attractive. George Smithers was hot. All the girls, the same girls who had ridiculed him years passed, hung all over him, vying for his attention. Flirting with him. He wasn’t used to this. He was angered and saddened that he was only getting attention for his looks. He didn’t even believe himself to be that attractive. But after all these years of being pushed down, will he really pass up the chance to be risen to the top? Even if it’s only for shallow reasons? And will he lose himself in the process?
Greg Dickins | Alexander Gould | 15 | Freshman | Open
You know those kids, those dweebs, who think they’re all that? They think they rule the school, when in fact, they’re at the far bottom of the food chain? Everybody makes fun of them and ridicules them, yet they don’t get a fucking clue that they’re not wanted? Meet Greg, the boy who meets all of that, and more. He’s crude, annoying, loud, obnoxious, and incredibly geeky. He tries to woo girls over in the best way he could, which only turns them off even more. He tries to sit with people at lunch, and then performs jokes for them by putting chopsticks up his nose and acting like a seal or squirting milk out of his eye. Yes. He could squirt milk out of his eye. He considers that his most prized talent. He doesn’t understand that whenever he walks away, they laugh about him behind his back. It’s not even only to his back. They call to him, “Yo Dick!” which, makes it worse that he has a name that could be regarded as that. Sometimes jerks like to keep him around, just for the entertainment. Greg believes that because of that, it must mean that he’s incredibly popular. Too bad that’s far from the truth.
William Jamison | Robert Downey Jr | 43 | Open
William Jamison has been working at Greenville High for the past 11 years as a guidance counsellor. As an honest and charming man, Jamison is loved by almost all of the students in Greenville. Due to his habit of defending and covering for them, especially if it comes to having something permanently tainting their school records, the students he comes in contact with begin to let their carefully built walls down around him. They respect and accept his loyalty. He is rather wise and optimistic, making William the perfect counsellor. He’s witty and humorous, occasionally even in difficult situations, and can make almost any one laugh, from surprise or comfort. Although, He does have a skeptical side too. Once an individual really puts him off, which is quite a difficult thing to do, he’s blunt and straight forward towards them. William does have a habit of sticking his nose where it doesn’t belong from time-to-time, but only because he truly believes that he can help solve whatever is troubling them. William is a difficult person to stump, or leave speechless and can’t easily fooled.
However, the past few years, he had notice a decline in happiness in a lot of the students, which has really been worrying him lately. So, now, more than ever he’s determined to get all those troubled students back on track with some of his help, praying that his quirkiness aids him in his task this time as well.

Mr. Anthony Farris | Andrew Scott | 33 | Math Teacher | Open
Mr. Farris has “two Master’s degrees in Mathematics,” as anyone who has ever come within ten feet of him can tell you since he never stops bragging about them. Arrogant to the core, he doesn’t refer to himself as a teacher, but as a “mathematician” and is constantly telling his students how he has so much money that he doesn’t need to work. He simply chooses what school he would like to teach at for how long he wants, and will leave as soon as administration there starts to disagree with his methods. He’s an imposing figure in the hallways, since everyone knows of his reputation. He has little patience for teaching itself, and will deal with only a few students, those he refers to as the “best and brightest,” while he bashes the rest of the student body for not being smart enough to secure a spot in his classroom.
