When forced to go live with her ridiculously rich - and not to mention, rude - Grandmother, Kairi thinks that her life can't get any worse. Troubled by her dark past, she expects her life to continue on a downward slope. However, all her expectations are flipped when she begins to attend Degrassi, a high school in Toronto, and meets several life changing people. Can one of them - a certain Eli Goldsworthy - help her get over her demons, and push her towards a better future?
