It's senior year at Monterey Prep, and with the excitement of the upcoming holiday season, comes the school's annual Snowflake Ball. As the most coveted achievement in a female student's high school life, the crown and title of Snowflake Queen is much more than just a shiny tiara.
Through campaigns and charity events, to friendly debates and community service, the nominees prepare themselves for final voting day. Along with popularity and a shiny crown, the winner of each year's ball is granted the permission to donate the school's charity fund to a nonprofit organization of her choosing and would receive a personalized letter of recommendation from the dean herself to the college that she plans to attend in the fall.
For Jennifer Check, winning has always come easy for her; she was pretty, smarter than most would assume, and loved a competitive game every now and then. After having lost homecoming queen to her arch nemesis, Regina George, last year, Jennifer is determined to end her high school life with one more trophy on her mantle. The only thing that stood in her way, were The Plastics.
Ruled by Student Body President herself, Regina, The Plastics were a clique comprised of three other girls. Karen Smith, Gretchen Wieners, and Cady Heron were the three musketeers to Regina's puppet master. Tormenting the student body of Monterey Prep was moreso Regina's prerogative than the rest of the girls-Gretchen did it for popularity, Cady did it for Aaron Samuels, and Karen...well Jennifer wasn't sure what Karen got out of it.
When she comes up with a plan to take down The Plastics, secure the crown, and get a little payback for her best friend by befriended the kindest member of the school clique, Jennifer is surprised to find out just what it is Karen is really after.
But she has a plan, right?
