Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming
[13.2] During school, they're top-notch students, working hard to make the grade. But come 9th period, the textbooks are gone, and the three kids team up together to use the observation and deductive reasoning skills they've developed in class to solve the town's mysteries and crimes. Peyton, the bright athlete, and Conner, the skateboarder/science whiz, meet up with leader of the pack, inquisitive Meg, under her favorite magnolia tree every Friday. That's when they put their detective minds together to figure out everything from who stole the car from the school parking lot, to who owns the long-lost ring they stumbled upon on the creek bed. Young viewers become engrossed as they use their own cognitive skills to solve the mysteries along with the 9th Period team. Every episode includes a moral lesson, integrating interesting science facts and other classroom knowledge.
