    • Trivia
      James Patterson, the author of the Middle School book series, makes a cameo as a manager of the restaurant where they dine for their mom's birthday.
    • Goofs
      When Rafe first arrives at the school, the principal stops him for breaking rule 22 - the dress code; however, when Rafe goes into the school (and later into the classrooms) it is obvious that he is not the only student failing to comply with the dress code, as many of the other students are also wearing clothes that would violate rule 22. The principal, however, does not press on with the rule to the other students.
    • Quotes

      Principal Dwight: Hey, uh, just by a show of hands, how many people have a test that starts with the question, "True or false: Principal Dwight has three nipples?"

      [students laugh and all raise their hands]

      Principal Dwight: Well, that's a lot of you. Well, it's false. Put false. I was born without nipples for your information, and it looks beautiful!
