Overview

The first season was released on October 18, 2015 and follows Miriam (Amanda Steele) attending sessions with her guidance counselor Anna (Michelle Trachtenberg) following the public release of scandalous photos of Miriam circulating around the school. Anna then investigates who released the photos and why.

The series was renewed for a second season which was released on November 14, 2016. The second season featured an entirely new cast and storyline – Hilary (Arden Rose), an overachiever at Capital High who discovers that her perfect GPA is suffering, causing her to accuse the school's most beloved teacher of favoritism. The new guidance counselor (Erica Dasher) launches an investigation. ^[1]

The series was renewed for a third season which was released on August 28, 2017. Season 3, once again, features a new cast. The third season follows Faith (Dianne Doan), who is in mourning after the death for twin sister, Grace (also played by Doan) due to a fatal hit-and-run. Meanwhile Katina (Monique Coleman), the school's guidance counselor, "attempts to facilitate a school-wide mourning session" while investigating the circumstances of Grace's death and the tarnishing of her memory. ^[2]
