Another fish out of water story with a different spin by Kyle, Mark, Aaron, and Corey:
Three main characters, all teenagers, have their lives documented and recorded by a team of cameras that is never acknowledged, but a constant theme. The show breaks the fourth wall constantly, and the small town high school setting is a continuous vessel of hilarity. Schoolboyz would be filmed like a reality show, but with all the events and dialogue scripted. Each episode would follow the characters lives in high school. It would be filmed in a 'shoulder camera', fashion with private interview sequences filmed in a private place (such as the bathrooms). There would be a central theme for each episode but no real solution or moral to give the watcher something to learn from. It's like watching real life. Only funnier.

Sorry this is late. We had supernatural interference with our space time continum, plus one of our members didn't change his password and then got sick. It's mostly Mr. Martin's fault.

Hmmm...my fault? Do you mean by kindly reminding you to have this completed so you don't lose credit?
Don't forget your character sketches and springboards!
Spingboard #1
The Argument
Sanchez becomes picked on by a tough teacher at school, due to a small misunderstanding. What starts as a small miscommunication due to Wayne's poor translation skills eventually leads to violence with the teacher. Sanchez also discovers suspension, and why one shouldn' take offence at everything.
Teacher could be portrayed by a relativly tough teacher at our school. Possibly Mr. Martin or Mr. O'Toole ;).
Springboard #2
Swedish Heritage Week
After learning Aaron's Swedish heritage, Wayne tries to introduce the first ever 'James M. Hill Swedish appretiation week', to Aaron's embarrassment. To intergrate himself into the festivities, Sanchez lies and claims he has Swedish decent as well.
Springboard #3
The Bully
Aaron's kindergarten bully transfers to the school, but doesn't recognize Aaron. This prompts Wayne to orginize an intricate revenge scheme with the help of Sanchez, which of course, causes more trouble for Aaron.
HA! Mr. Martin is a tough teacher! Only because he cares about you guys!
This is a cool idea. I can see it shot like the TV series "Reno 911".

Character Sketch #4
Eric grew up with his mother. His Brother never paid attention to him because they had both completely different interests. He like Games and computers his bother liked Cars and motors. He also had few friends growing up due to living in the country side so he spent most of his time on his computer. After Spending so much time on a computer he found out how to do several things on it including how to get free stuff. After that he figured he could make money by selling this free stuff very cheap or exchange for things. Making him someone useful to other people but not actually making him a friend because he’s strange. He is currently enrolled to James M. Hill Memorial High School, along with Wayne, Aaron, and Sanchez and all the other students. Eric is a straight A student but having a habit of handing in his homework late. Eric likes to swim, bike, and mostly Pirate things online. Basically he’s an average kid that makes a living off the internet.
Sanchez Discovers a fun video game a gets addicted to it, He then starts skipping out on school to play the game while his, school marks goes down. His friends then try to help him to come back.
