Those Who Can't
Synopsis
Mrs. Perdue-Valentine is a principal at the once low performing MLK Community High School, and she is questioned for masterminding a National cheating scandal. In her absence the three teachers that arguably run the school need to find out how to get the Principal out of trouble, keep the students of the school excelling, and maintain sanity in their personal lives.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 12
These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
