Ron may be the perfect guy—he’s popular, good-looking, smart and funny.
How can a shy kid like Teresa even talk to him? But when their
paths cross and each gets caught doing something they shouldn’t, they
have to think about what they believe about themselves, about
each other and about what they want. Can’t Believe It! is a
comic drama drawn from the real lives of students, teachers
and parents. It offers an opportunity for teens to learn about
taking responsibility for their actions and the consequences
of making poor or inappropriate decisions.
