Tennyson Alexander Lebowitz [27] is the science teacher of Houston Barden at Westley Private Academy. Recently, Tennyson's grown a little worried about Houston hearing about the other's family life as well as hearing the other teacher's complain about his brother Orlando constantly stripping out of his school uniform. Tennyson understands the boy mostly lives with their mother - but their paternal grandfather pays for them to attend Westley Academy. Tennyson can understand how hard it is to be from a divorced home and raised by a single parent, his own parents divorced when he was only three and his mother remarried when he was five, had three kids with her new husband and seemingly forgot that Tennyson every existed - foisting custody over to his father who would rather be at work then dealing with his son. Tennyson has zero contact with his parents now and prefers it that way, he's still in touch with his paternal grandmother and lives currently with his fiancee and their two dogs. Tennyson is quite close with his fiancee's family and is even considering taking her surname when they marry.

Yasmine Luma Faris {26} is the fiancee of Tennyson. Yasmine is one of four children, she has an older sibling and two younger siblings. She was raised a Muslim, and is hoping to raise her future children in the Islamic faith as well. She works as an art teacher at Westley Private Academy, which was where she met Tennyson. They became friends, and it was only two years ago that they decided to become a couple. She and Tennyson have two dogs, a dalmatian named Buster, and a Shiba Inu named Lettie. She knows that Tennyson has a few reservations about being a father due to how his own father was when he was younger, but she knows that he will be a great dad to their children.

Estelle spends a lot of time at work and doesn't spend as much time with her kids as she might like, but feels its the best for them to see her succeed in her profession so they will be ambitious and hardworking themselves some day.

Fenton Thomas Christopherson {5} is the younger brother of Frey Christopherson, son of Estelle, and nephew of Allan Greer. He really looks up to his elder brother Frey and wants to be just like him when he is older. He has a tendency to follow Frey around because of this. Fenton plays soccer, baseball, and basketball, but has been told he's too small for football. This was crushing for him because he wanted to play so bad. However, he's gotten over it because he can play baseball like his dad. Even though he doesn't spend a lot of time with his mom, he loves her a lot and likes to play in her office. He's the happiest when she comes to his sports games.

Brooks Guillaume Foster Grant {6} is a friend of Fenton's from school. Brooks is a smart kid who loves to study; his favourite subjects are math and foreign languages. He is an only child, and has lived with his single mom since his father died four years ago doing his job as a firefighter. His mom recently remarried though, and Brooks gained 2 stepsisters. He wasn't that happy at gaining a new family, but has embraced it and gets along quite well with his stepfather. He's not too sure what to think of his stepsisters; he quite likes the younger one as she is nice to him, but the older one is mean and tends to pinch him a lot.

 

Madeleif 'Leif' Rosaline Theobald {7} is the stepsister of Brooks. Leif is shy and reserved, and doesn't really have many friends. Her parents divorced not long after her younger sister was born, and she doesn't like having to spend time at both houses instead of them all living together. She isn't happy that her father has remarried, and has been making things difficult for her new stepmother despite her father having stern words with her. She accidentally discovered that her stepmother is pregnant, and has been planning to reveal it at an inconvenient time to make trouble.

Tirzah Capucine Rumour Chadwick {8}, Dulcie Xochitl Adelaine Chadwick {7}, and Colfax Cotton Laszlo Chadwick {5} are siblings and the next-door neighbors of Brooks Grant and Leif Theobald. They are ultra-imaginative kids. The three of them are very close. They have no other siblings, but they have a number of cousins via their dad's 2 brothers. Their mom was an only child, but the kids are quite close to their maternal grandparents. Their mom and dad are married and the kids are the center of the family. They have everything they could ever dream of, and so much more. They are quite wealthy, but are more bohemian than snooty. They have a vintage Volkswagen van in the backyard the kids use as a play-place and fort. Tirzah loves running track, playing soccer, and drawing. Dulcie is really into drama. She is very outgoing and friendly, and she likes to be the center of attention. Colfax is a bit of a reckless kid, he's getting into just about everything. At 5, he doesn't have many specific hobbies. He's usually enrolled in sports and arts and anything his older sisters do.

Ingrid Griselda Fairfax (nee Greer) [36] is a pediatric surgeon. Recently she preformed surgery on Colfax Chadwick for a badly broken leg, and its not the first time. She's tried many times to talk to his parents about letting him run wild - but they just give her a boys' will be boys thing which frustrates Ingrid - she just thinks they're bad parents. Ingrid would never be so careless with her own child - she has a daughter younger than Colfax. Ingrid is the second youngest of four siblings, she has two older sisters - Estelle Brunhilda Christopherson [42] who is a lawyer and is the mother of her two nephews, Frey [8] and Fenton [5], then she has another older sister who is an accountant and from whom she has one niece and one nephew and then there is her younger brother; Allan Dieter Greer [31] is an English Teacher at Westley Private Academy where her father is the Headmaster/Principal/Owner of the school, Ingrid and all of her siblings attended there. Ingrid out of all her siblings has the worst relationship with Allan, she thinks he's wasting his life away as a teacher and cannot believe he's still not married or at least in a relationship at all! Overall, Ingrid is a very serious person, but her husband and daughter tend to bring out a softer side of her.

Eve Catherine Fairfax {4} is the daughter of Ingrid Fairfax, niece of Estelle Christopherson and Allan Greer, and cousin of Frey and Fenton. She is watched like a hawk by her over-protective mom. She isn't allowed to eat gluten, or dairy, or junk food of any sort. She isn't allowed to wear shoes with laces because she might trip, or have a pet because it could bite. If she comes home from school with a cut or a bruise from playing on the playground or in gym class, her mom gets quite upset. In general, Ingrid is very happy around Eve and Eve loves her mom. However, Eve does wish she could play and explore like the other kids. She wants to go over and play at her friends houses without her mom standing watching her. Eve is a kind-hearted, loving girl who loves to encourage others.
