die at their private school. Her father is always with the
military, and she lives with her Grandmother. She is also
known for having severe cases of "bacne", or acne on her
back. Freddie lives in Manhattan on the Upper East Side.
Vida Atwood (Jessica Williams)
Vida is a sporty athletic serious girl, who has a lot in com-
mon with her soccer mate Lauren Zelmer. She has been
playing soccer the longest, and is sort of the unofficial
best at the game. She lives at home with her younger
brother, older sister, and parents. Vida is self conscious
of her towering height, and it is known that she once
beat up a boy back in first or second grade. She lives in
Queens.
Lauren Zelmer (Katija Pevec)
Lauren is a shy, timid serious girl who is a good athlete.
She is a typical schoolgirl who plays the violin and is on
the soccer team, among other activities. Lauren is very
intelligent, and is very busy with extra curricular activi-
ties, which causes her much stress. She has a big crush on
Alexa’s older brother Chris, and at the end of the season
they start to date, much to Alexa’s disbelief. Her overpro-
tective mother works at a local private school, in which
Lauren attends. Lauren lives in Manhattan in Harlem. [1]
