* DisappearedDad (Sam's, deceased)
* TheDitz: Mary Cherry, to the point where people think she's mentally challenged.
* DorkHorseCandidate: April, who wins after [[AlphaBitch Brooke]] and [[CoolLoser Harrison]] drop out of the race.
* DysfunctionJunction
* EvilMakeover: Harrison (this troper found it incredibly hot, though)
* EvilRedHeads: April Tuna, sometimes.
* EvilTwin: Jessi, and Mary Cherry's twin, though calling them "evil" really is just that they're only slightly more bad by comparison to the first one. And both of Emory's sisters.
* FoodFight
* FreeTheFrogs: Lily
* FreudianExcuse: Nicole is an AlphaBitch due to the cruelty she endured as a child.
* FullNameBasis: Mary Cherry, Cherry Cherry
* FurAndLoathing: Furs were worn, but by the rich bitches.
* {{Geek}} and {{Nerd}}: April and May Tuna, Emory, pretty much everybody below the Sam/Harrison crowd on the scale of popularity.
* GentleGiant: Sugar Daddy
* GirlPosse
* GRatedDrug: "cough syrup" is the new crack! Also, wacky premenstrual drugs.
* HalfIdenticalTwins: the Glass twins have a brother.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Josh and Sugardaddy
* HighSchoolDance
* HollywoodDateless: Harrison
* ICantBelieveAGuyLikeYouWouldNoticeMe: ''Any'' time a blonde/jock dates a brunette/non-jock on this show.
* IgnoredEpiphany: Nicole
* IHaveManyNames: nicknames in the case of Bobbi "Bio" "Chem" "Claw" Glass. And that's not even counting the nastier ones....
* ImportantHaircut: some girls have to shave their heads when they lose a bet. Naturally, they all have wigs that look just like their old hair again within a few episodes- the reverse of HairTodayGoneTomorrow.
* InWithTheInCrowd
* JerkJock: subverted, as the jock guys on the show were actually pretty nice.
* LanguageOfLove: Sugar Daddy and Exquisite Woo, though she magically seems to have better English later.
* MakeoverMontage (of course)
* MakeWayForThePrincess
* ManipulativeBastard: Nicole is the show's best example. New student Adam is also very capable when it comes to this (his backstory reveals that he forced a girl into a mental institution just by screwing with her head). Brooke and Sam also have their moments, as their ongoing rivalry gives them more than ample time to demonstrate.
* MenstrualMenace: The episode "Caged!" revolves [[UnfortunateImplications awkwardly]] around this idea.
* MissingMom: Brooke's
* MusicalEpisode
* MyNameIsNotDurwood: Mary Cherry always calls Harrison "Joe." Yes, she knows what his real name is.
* MySisterIsOffLimits: this never works well with Brooke and Sam.
* NoGoingSteady (doesn't Josh somehow sleep with/make out with/date every female in the cast? Not to mention that you can't keep track of who's interested in who from week to week.)
* NonIdenticalTwins: the Tunas
* TheOneGuy: Harrison
* ParentExMachina
* ParentTrapPlot
* ParentWithNewParamour: Sam's mom and Brooke's dad date and shack up with each other, and eventually have a baby together.
* PetTheDog: Nicole does have her moments, giving Harrison a bone marrow transplant, and even apologising to a few of her victims after going to far. She gets worse. Bobbi Glass also has a few decent episodes. Basically, no one hurts her students but her.
* PictureDay
* PoisonousFriend: Nicole to Brooke.
* PopularIsDumb: Mary Cherry is completely over the top in this. (Brooke, on the other hand, gets excellent grades. Nicole is something of an evil genius.)
* PrettyInMink: When the context isn't the other trope.
* RedRightHand: After a cat eats off Bobbi's finger, she gets a fake one, and the nickname Claw. Which she answers to.
* RepetitiveName: Cherry Cherry.
* RichBitch: Nicole, Mary Cherry, Cherry Cherry
* SadistTeacher: Bobbi Glass
* SchoolNewspaperNewsHound: Sam
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: all the rich bitch folks
* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Season 2 ends with a cliffhanger because the ShowRunner was told he'd get a Season 3.
* SeparatedAtBirth: Mary Cherry and her twin
* SoapBoxSadie: Lily
* SpeakNowOrForeverHoldYourPeace
* SpecialGuest: Mary Cherry's parents were Delta Burke and RuPaul. Oh, and Ann-Margret is {{God}}.
* StepfordSmiler: Pretty much everybody in the popular crowd, excepting BrokenAce Josh. Brooke and Sugar are the depressed variety, Nicole is the psycho version.
* StockSeriesFinales: the first season finale did its best to make fun of every trope it could possibly find.
* StraightGay: Harrison's mom
* StudentCouncilPresident
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: the pricipals
* ThemeTwinNaming: Bobbi and Jessi Glass, and April and May Tuna.
* TomboyishName: Sam.
* TonightSomeoneDies: Pastiched all to heck in the first season finale, with a running vote of who should die going on the screen periodicially, and Bobbi Glass in particular having a ''really'' bad day. In the end, it was the [[spoiler:IllGirl May Tuna]] who bit it at the last moment.
* {{Transsexual}}: The shop teacher, though Bobbi Glass sure did seem to have Issues with that. Hmmmmmmmm...
* TwoTeacherSchool: Not at first, but later in the series where Bobbi Glass taught ''everything''.
* UnrequitedLoveSwitcheroo: Harrison and Brooke
* WackyHomeroom
* WeddingDay
* WhatMeasureIsANonCute: Subverted, as activist Lily will try to save non-cute animals such as lobsters.
* WonderfulLife
* WondrousLadiesRoom: So fabulous it has a name: the Novak. And all the homecoming queen's pictures are posted there. And both genders wander on through.
* WhyDoYouKeepChangingJobs
* YetAnotherChristmasCarol
* YoureNotMyFather
