There's different theories about high school. Some say in high school you'll have the best time of your life, and some say it's complete hell, yet very stressful. Both of those do seem to be true, but it doesn't have to be bad like they say it is. It takes a group of people that has a special bond to make it through high school.
That's where Xavier Dixon comes in, entering his Junior year, along with his new best friends he connected with this past summer. As long as they stick together, anything is possible... but they can't escape the obstacles Oakland High has to offer.
