Wayside School (usually billed as just Wayside) is an Animated Adaptation of the novels from Louis Sachar, created by John Derevlany.

While a lot of the original setting and premise from the books is retained in the series (ie the 30 ft school, the students, and the cows), it also differs quite a bit from the original story. For instance, Todd is made a New Transfer Student to the school and stars as the main protagonist for the show with Mrs. Jewels already teaching at Wayside.

Originally premiering on Canada's Teletoon in 2007, it was later moved to Nickelodeon. The series had 25 episodes and an hour long Pilot Movie episode.
