Tagline: He has a lesson to teach. And nobody's going to have a problem with it.
Plot: When a teacher is assaulted by gang members at school, her boyfriend, a soldier of fortune named Shale, decides to take matters into his own hands. He becomes the new substitute teacher, and goes undercover to investigate the lethal street gang. Shale discovers that the thugs are heavily involved with drug dealing, and that the principal himself "assigns" their illegal activities. Shale, aided by his crew of mercenaries, sets out to clean up the school -- and teach the kids -- before his cover is blown.
