When does Degrassi Junior High return?

Degrassi Junior High originally aired on PBS
Degrassi Junior High is a Canadian television series. It aired on the CBC from 18 January 1987 to 27 February 1989. The series was developed by Kit Hood and Linda Schuyler in response to what they perceived to be a lack of proper educational programming targeted toward teenagers. It was broadcast and later syndicated in nearly a hundred countries, with considerable overseas success in Australia. The show experienced renewed interest in the 1990s due to re-runs and syndication resulting in the proliferation of an online fandom.
The show centred around an ethnically and economically diverse group of students from East End Toronto attending the fictional Degrassi Junior High School. Co-creator Linda Schuyler outlined the show's mandate as informing its adolescent viewers as opposed to directly advising them not to make controversial choices. The first two seasons span an entire year, with some characters in Grade 7, and others in Grade 8. For the third season, Grade 9, which is typically the first year of high school in Canada, was added to the junior high school.
