This TV series was created for the US teen audience, and is designed to involve its audience in the lives, scandals and emotional traumas of Latino students attending a fictional high school in East Los Angeles, California.

The first season was streamed online in summer 2013; the second season was premiered on July 9, 2014. It is the first-ever English language series with an all-Latino cast to address issues in Latino communities in the United States.
