Summer School was a 1987 film directed by Carl Reiner about the travails of a high school gym teacher who is forced to teach a remedial English class for a bunch of maladjusted goof-off students. It starred Mark Harmon, Kirstie Alley, and Courtney Thorne-Smith. It mirrors another '80s movie, The Breakfast Club, in which the main characters are misfit students in a 1980s high school and follows the formula of the misunderstood teacher leading a group of misfits.
