On October 20, 2020, it was announced that Amazon Studios's free ad-supported streaming service IMDb TV was developing a project based on identical twin indie pop duo Tegan and Sara Quin's eponymous 2019 memoir. Happiest Season director Clea DuVall was attached to create and direct the pilot episode, as well as executive produce alongside the Quin sisters. The series is set to be produced by Plan B Entertainment under their overall deal at Amazon Studios.[1] At Amazon's first NewFront presentation on May 3, 2021, it was announced that IMDb TV had given the project a series order. Upon the series order announcement, Tegan and Sara said:[2]
We are incredibly excited to be working with Lauren, Ryan, and the fantastic IMDb TV team to bring 'High School' to life and apologize in advance to our mother for forcing her to relive this period of time with us again. We’ve made casting suggestions on her behalf to the incomparable Clea DuVall and our wonderful partners at Plan B.
