A new English teacher, Harper Burgess, is hired at John Quincy Adams middle school, who has a non-traditional way of educating.When she wants to use a comic book as a learning tool, Principal Yancy is not pleased with her or Cory, who defends her creative ways of teaching, and calls in an old friend, Superintendent Jonathan Turner, to resolve the matter.
Based on ABC's hugely popular 1993-2000 sitcom, this new comedy, set in New York City, will tell the wonderfully funny, heartfelt stories that "Boy Meets World" is renowned for - only this time from a tween girl's perspective - as the curious and bright 7th grader Riley Matthews and her quick-witted friend Maya Fox embark on an unforgettable middle school experience. But their plans for a carefree year will be adjusted slightly under the watchful eyes of Riley's parents - dad Cory, who's also a faculty member (and their new History teacher), and mom Topanga, who owns a trendy afterschool hangout that specializes in pudding.
