It's Hannah Bradford's first year of high school. As a transgender girl, Hannah not only has to navigate the challenges that come with starting a new school, but find the courage to live as her most authentic self.
Hannah Bradford, a 12 year-old transgender girl, is nervous about starting at a new school. It doesn't take her long to make friends and she discovers the first day of high school is difficult for everyone.
Hannah feels left out when it appears she's the only one not sleeping over at Jasmine's party. With Olivia's help, Hannah decides to make the most of the time she is there and has a better night than she expected.
After being outed on social media, Hannah withdraws from those closest to her. It isn't until Olivia and Natalie pay her a visit that Hannah remembers how much her friends mean to her and she decides to return to school.
At school camp, Hannah's friends throw her a surprise birthday party and at the end of the night she finds herself around a campfire fielding questions about being transgender. As the crowd grows, so does her confidence.
In her second year at Hillview, Hannah's run for Class Captain exposes an underlying level of transphobia among her classmates. She starts a group for LGBTQIA+ students but risks alienating her closest friends in the process.
Hannah runs for Class Captain but in doing so discovers some of her classmates still see her as the 'transkid'.
Feeling increasingly alienated from her friends, Hannah starts a Pride Group to find people she can connect with.
Olivia tries to make amends with Hannah over an incident at Jazzie's party but Hannah finds it difficult to forgive her friend.
Facing one of her biggest fears, Hannah takes to the stage at assembly to try and convince the student body to support a change to the Hillview High uniform policy.
