Trivia
Stefan Brogren (Archibald 'Snake' Simpson) was the first person to use the word "fuck" on Canadian television.

Goofs
During the cottage sequence, Alexa angrily yells at Simon that she "can't believe you just said that!" Despite him not saying anything, and the scene not being cut, with Simon simply playing volleyball with Tim, saying nothing, and the scene not being cut into, but rather fluid, indicating an edit of some kind, but one that was incongruent.

Quotes
Caitlin Ryan: Tessa Campanelli? You were fucking Tessa Campanelli?

Alternate versions
When "School's Out" premiered in the United States in 1993 on PBS, lots of footage was left out. These scenes include:
Joey and Tessa going into more detail about the movie they saw on their first date.
Snake falling into the pool on his first day as a lifeguard.
Snake being followed around the pool by little girls who develop crushes on him.
Tessa showing up late for work the day after her date with Joey, then going into detail with Spike on how Joey will be her's before school starts.
Snake confronting Joey about two-timing Caitlin with Tessa, and saying that Joey has spent his summer "f**king Tessa". (In the U.S. version, "seeing Tessa" was dubbed over the above mentioned words).
When Caitlin overhears the conversation, she asks Joey, "You were f**king Tessa Campanelli?"
Snake rescues a drowning girl at Bronco's party, then has a breakdown because of his lousy summer.

Brilliant and powerful!!!

The first time I ever watched this movie was back in 1994 when I was living in a small town called Gildford located in the northern part of Montana. I watched the whole movie with one of my nephews and enjoyed it all the way through but I expected more after it came to its ending. I used to watch reruns of the Degrassi Junior High and Degrassi High episodes everyday when I got home from school while living in Gildford and I always loved and cherished those shows because of how enjoyable and true to life they were. I now own the complete series of Degrassi Junior High on DVD and I just received a brand new copy of the School's Out movie on VHS and after watching it once again after almost twelve years, it really is much better the second time around. It didn't exactly have the happiest of endings but that's what made the story so believably realistic. I absolutely love this movie and consider it a wonderful conclusion to the Degrassi Old School storyline.

I rest my case.
