• Francia Raisa as Adrian Lee

• Daren Kagasoff as Ricky Underwood

The drummer in the school marching band who was sexually abused by his father as a child and now lives in a foster home. He and his psychiatrist believe this has led to his womanizing and promiscuity with women, because Ricky feels that he must have sex with every girl he meets in a vain effort to prove to himself his own masculinity. He is known as the resident bad boy, and is dating Adrian.

• Megan Park as Grace Bowman

The devoutly Christian head cheerleader who takes her vow of purity very seriously. Has an older brother with down syndrome.

Recurring

• Josie Bissett as Kathleen Bowman

• John Schneider as Marshall Bowman

Grace’s dad. He is very over-protective of Grace, but still is a good father. He finds out, before Amy’s parents, that she is pregnant which starts him questioning what it means to “make a mistake”. He would never allow his daughter to be less than perfect.

• Jorge Luis-Pallo as Marc Molina ^[1]

The new school counselor. Most of the girls in school find him very “hot”. He worked in Wall Street before working as a school counselor.
