Plot synopsis
In the all-new season of “The High School Years,” airing Tuesdays at 10/9c on NBC, Nick (Kavan Smith) is a senior, ready to take on the world. He’s got a great group of friends and he’s determined to make the most of his final year. But when tragedy strikes, Nick finds himself grappling with the biggest question of his life: What’s really important? Along the way, he’ll discover what it takes to be an all-American teenager – and that sometimes the toughest battles are fought inside ourselves.
