General Education
Director: Tom Morris
Actors: Chris Sheffield, Maiara Walsh, Larry Miller
PlotLevi Collins is set to attend the prestigious Forestwood University on a tennis scholarship and appears to have his future mapped out. However, with the start of the fall semester looming, a significant issue arises: Levi hasn't graduated high school due to failing his science class. Determined to keep his academic predicament under wraps, he enrolls in summer school without telling his parents, who believe he's already completed all his requirements. His father has high expectations for his success, while his mother remains more understanding yet unaware of Levi's real situation.
As Levi navigates this tricky situation, he meets and befriends Katie, a fellow student who is passionate about science and education. Alongside their studies, their friendship gradually blossoms, with Katie offering both academic help and emotional support. Meanwhile, Levi juggles his summer school obligations, tennis practice, and the pressure of keeping his academic status a secret from his family. His journey becomes increasingly complicated as he attempts to balance these responsibilities, leading to moments of personal growth, difficult decisions, and an evolving perspective on what truly matters to him.
