The sitcom follows the lives of various teachers working at a school. It delves deep into the various kinds of struggles and challenges that they face as they try their best to help improve the lives of students. Take a look at the official synopsis of the show, according to DGE Press:

''A workplace comedy following a group of dedicated, passionate teachers — and a slightly tone-deaf principal —as they navigate the Philadelphia public school system.''

The synopsis further reads:

''Despite the odds stacked against them, they are determined to help their students succeed in life, and though these incredible public servants may be outnumbered and underfunded, they love what they do — even if they don’t love the school district’s less-than-stellar attitude toward educating children.''

The show has received widespread acclaim, with most critics praising its strong writing, unique approach, and performances by the cast, among various other things.

The cast is led by noted actress Quinta Brunson, whose performance in the role of protagonist Janine Teagues is one of the show's major strongpoints. The rest of the supporting cast members include Janelle James as Ava Coleman, Tyler James Williams as Gregory Eddie, and Chris Perfetti as Jacob Hill, among various others.
