[Kids Chattering]
Hi. Can I Have
A Notebook, Pen, Ruler,
Here You Go.
Thank You.
You're Welcome.
Is This Part
Of Your Diet?
Hey, Beat It.
She's Not Bothering You.
Ooh, She's Scared.
Let's Go.
Hey, You.
What's Up, Chica?
Nada. Just Kickin' It.
You Know,
First-Day-Back Blues.
Heh.
[Gasps]
Oh, I Am So Sorry.
Are You Ok?
It's Fine.
It's My Fault.
I Just Got
So Involved
In The Book,
I Forgot To Watch
Where I'm Going.
Oh.
Could You Be So Kind
As To Point Me Towards
The Administration Building?
Sure. Um, Yeah,
You Follow Along
These Buildings Here,
Past The Jock Trophies,
Up The Stairs.
If You Pass
The Faculty Room,
You Went Too Far.
Thank You. Thanks.
I'm Sorry.
Bye.
[Hip-Hop Music Playing]
Ooh, Yeah, Girl,
You're Dustin' Me!
All Right, Who's Got
The Next Cut?
Um, I Got It.
Here.
Where Are You Going
With That Dumb,
Girly Music, Esmeralda?
Who Named You
The Queen Of Music?
As Long As I Got The Moves,
I'll Be The One Pickin'
The Tunes.
Are We On The Same Page?
And, Segura, Please Come
To School With Your
Pants Pulled Up.
Nobody Cares What Color
Your Underwear Is.
Go To Class.
Gomez!
Gomez, Gomez,
Gomez, Gomez.
If You Put
As Much Energy
Into Your Schoolwork
As You Do
Into Goofing Off,
You Will Be
On The Honor Roll,
My Friend.
Yes, Sir.
Direct Me To The Front,
Colonel Zavala.
I Will Sacrifice Myself
For The Good
Of The School.
Dismissed.
[Sighs]
Hey.
Hi.
I Take It Principal Zavala
Had A Previous Life
In The Military.
Don't Think The Kids
Will Ever Let Him
Forget It For A Minute.
Good Morning,
Ms. Bartlett.
I'm Delighted To See
You Actually
Showed Up.
You Had Doubts?
Well, You Wouldn't Be
My First New Recruit
To Go Awol.
These Kids Can Be
Pretty Intimidating.
After Watching
A Dot-Com Company
Crash And Burn,
This Should Be Easy
In Comparison.
Don't Count On It.
Thanks
For The Reassurance.
[Bell Rings]
Remember,
Ms. Bartlett,
The First Day Is Usually
The Most Trying.
Good Luck.
[Kids Chattering Loudly]
So, Who's In Charge Here?
Who Knows?
Maybe No One.
Oughta Learn More
Than We Usually Do, Then.
Yep.
Ha Ha!
What?
Oh, Oh!
Yo, That's Tight.
You Better Quit It,
Guys.
You Want To Land Us
All In Detention?
Ooh, You Wouldn't Want
That To Go
On Your Permanent
Record, Would You?
Yeah! Go, Yoli!
Oh, Oh, Go, Yoli!
Oh, Oh, Go, Yoli!
Go, Yoli! Go, Yoli!
Whoo!
[Whistles]
[Banging Stops]
Good Morning.
[Boy Wolf-Whistles]
My Name Is Ms. Bartlett,
I'm Your New Biology Teacher.
Boo!
Nice Suit!
Whatever!
Good Luck!
Can Anybody Tell Me
What Biology Is?
A Royal Pain.
A Total Waste
Of Time?
[Kids Laugh]
Biology Is The Science
Of Living Organisms
And Vital Processes.
It's An Exploration Between
Plant And Animal Life,
The Laws And The Phenomena
That...
Govern The...
Varied Species
On The Planet.
Am I Going Too Fast?
Do You Have
Any Questions?
Why Should We Care?
Yeah, And How Does It
Matter To Us
If Some Dumb Animal Goes
And Gets Itself Extinct?
We'd Be Better Off
Busting Some Beats.
Yeah!
Yeah, Bump It!
Oh, Oh!
Go, Daisy!
Come On, Daisy!
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh!
Kids:
Go, Daisy! Go, Daisy!Go, Daisy!
Uh-Oh!
Go, Daisy! Go, Daisy!
Go, Daisy!
Uh! Uh! Uh!
Go, Daisy! Go, Daisy...
Zavala:
Attention![Kids Stop Yelling]
That's Automatic Detention
For 2 Weeks, Starting Today.
[Sighs] Gosh,
That's Wack, Colonel.
I'm Adding 2 More Weeks
For Insubordination,
Miss Salinas.
She Wasn't
The Only One
Dancing.
Would You Care
To Join Her, Miss Vargas?
Anybody Else?
An Effective Leader Seizes
Control Of Her Troops
Immediately.
Absolutely.
[Sighs]
[Kids Chatting Indistinctly]
Hey, Did You Hear
Ms. Renee Retired?
What?!
She Can't!
What About
Dance Team?
It Ain't Gonna Happen
This Year.
But I Need It
For College.
It's The Perfect
Extracurricular
Activity.
Ay, Pobrecita.
Poor Thing? Not Me.
Esmeralda's The One
Who's Been Preparing
For This
Since Second Grade.
Yeah. She's Gonna Freak.
[Moonlight Sonata Playing]
Boy:
Es Mo.Junior!
Junior, Give That Back!
Junior! Junior!
What Are You Doing?!
Junior, That's Not Funny!
Can I Have My Box
Back Please?
Esmeralda.
What Are You Doing
On The Floor?
Mom, He's
At It Again.
[Spanish Report
On Television]
Did You Give Your Brother
His Breakfast?
Mocoso, Give That Music Box
Back To Your Sister.
Now...
Andale.
Was Made Of Gold.
[Moonlight Sonata Playing]
[Rap Music Playing]
Hey.
Hey. How You Doin'?
School Is Such A Drag.
Man, Do You Know
How Lucky You Are
Your Parents Let You Drop Out?
Hey, I Tried
Sticking It Out.
Just Couldn't Hack It.
Not That Working's
So Much Better.
Boss Always On My Case.
Customers To Deal With.
The Second I Can,
In The World With You.
Yeah, Well,
Don't Let Tu Madre
Hear You Sing That Tune.
She Already Thinks
I'm A Bad Influence.
Hey, You Wanna
Kick Back After School?
Watch Some Tube?
[Laughs] I Wish.
That Jerk Zavala
Gave Me Detention
For A Whole Month.
Ooh.
That's Harsh.
But It Doesn't
Come Close
To My Record.
When I Was
In Ninth Grade,
He Tried Keeping Me
After School
For 4 Months...
Till I
Weaseled Out Of It.
How'd You Manage That,
Slick?
Oh, Put On My Best
"So Sorry" Face,
And Traded Detention
For An Extracurricular
Activity.
Sweet.
Yeah.
Kinda Like You.
Ok, Ms. Kim,
I Made My Corrections.
Would You Please
Type That Up?
No Problem.
Thank You.
Uh, Mr. Zavala,
It Says Ms. Bartlett
Went To Juilliard--
You Know,
That Amazing Performing
School In New York--
On A Dance Scholarship.
Are You Filing The Resumes
Or Reading The Resumes,
Miss Reyna?
I Didn't Mean To, Sir,
But It Just Jumped
Right Out.
I Mean, I've Been
Really Stressed
Since I Found Out
We Had No Dance Coach.
Do You Even Know
If Ms. Bartlett
Would Be Interested?
Well, Can't You
Force Her To Do It?
Well, Contrary
To What I Try To Make
You Students Believe,
I Really Don't Have
That Kind Of Power.
All After-School Coaches
Are Volunteers.
But You'll Talk To Her,
Right?
Please?
I'll See What I Can Do.
Gracias.
De Nada.
Good Morning,
Ms. Bartlett.
Ooh, This Can't Be Good.
I Have A Favor
To Ask.
It's Been Brought
To My Attention
That You Have
A Background In Dance.
Well,
That Was A Long Time Ago.
It's Not Something
I've Kept Up With.
Did You Know
We Have A Ninth-Grade
Dance Here At Marshall?
And Our Squad's Been
A Bit, Uh...
How Do I Say This?
[Chuckles]
Ok, We Have
A Statewide Reputation
For Being
A Perennial Disaster,
But These Girls
Are Counting On It.
They Have
The Enthusiasm.
All They're Lacking
Is A Coach.
I Don't Mean
To Be Rude, Sir,
But If You're Angling
To Get Me Involved,
Let Me Save You
The Breath.
Dancing's
A Part Of My Past.
All Right,
Then Let Me Try
This Approach.
Studies Show
That Participating
