"At Ocean Front High, what do they call a guy who cuts classes, hates homework, and lives for summer vacations? Teacher."
A high-school gym teacher has big plans for the summer, but is forced to cancel them to teach a "bonehead" English class for misfit goof-off students. Fortunately, his unconventional brand of teaching fun field trips begins to connect with them, and even inspires ardor in some.
