School of Rock is an American musical sitcom which premiered on Nickelodeon on March 12, 2016. The series, based on the 2003 film of the same name, stars Breanna Yde, Ricardo Hurtado, Jade Pettyjohn, Lance Lim, Aidan Miner, Tony Cavalero, and Jama Williamson.
Set in Austin, Texas, the series follows a group of rule-abiding students—Zack, Lawrence, Freddy, Summer and Tomika—who learn to take risks and reach new heights thanks to substitute teacher Dewey Finn, a down-on-his-luck musician who uses the language of rock and roll to inspire his class to form a secret band. Throughout the school year, these middle-school classmates find themselves navigating relationships, discovering their unknown talents and learning lessons on loyalty and friendships.
In August 2014, Nickelodeon announced a TV series adaptation of School of Rock, and the cast was revealed in March 2015. On April 5, 2016, Nickelodeon announced that School of Rock had been renewed for a 13-episode second season, and actress Breanna Yde announced on her Twitter account that production of season two began April 24, 2016. The second season premiered on Nickelodeon on September 17, 2016. Nickelodeon renewed the series for a 20-episode third season on December 2, 2016.
