Gerry Duncan, a social studies teacher who is often more concerned with his own popularity than his students' education, sees Bully Awareness Week as the perfect opportunity to prove his "coolness" and value to the school administration. While other teachers like Lisa Mason take the subject seriously, Gerry decides that the best way to tackle bullying is through a high-production-value video presentation.
As the week progresses, the "real" teachers become increasingly frustrated. Principal Callaghan is skeptical of Gerry’s methods, especially when she catches him sharing lunch and trading "cool" insults with the school's most notorious troublemakers.
