Jessica is humiliated when she finds out she's been accepted into a special program called SOAR, for gifted math and science students. Much to her surprise, Jessica finds that she actually likes SOAR. But Jessica's friends in the Unicorn Club aren't happy about her new interests, and tell Jessica she must choose: SOAR or the Unicorns.
