Middle School Blues

Middle School Blues, Rite of Passage is about a day in the life of a small group of 6th, 7th and 8th-grade students who live in a farming community north of Chicago, Illinois. The characters experience peer pressure, question their identity and struggle with physical changes occurring in their bodies. Some characters experiment with substances and some consider themselves transgender. This is a unique period of time between elementary school and high school. Getting through middle school is a rite-of-passage.
