Jim McAllister oltre che consigliere del comitato studentesco, è un insegnante molto popolare. Dopo essere stato nominato per tre volte negli ultimi dodici anni 'insegnante dell'anno', ora è pronto a rimettere tutto in ballo per un'elezione scolastica. L'insegnante vuole, infatti, mettere un freno all'ambizione della studentessa Tracy Flick per la quale il liceo altro non è che il primo gradino della scala che la porterà ad una brillante carriera: il suo prossimo passo è la presidenza del comitato studentesco.
