Cast Of Head Of The Class Where Are They Now

Whatever Happened to the IHP Kids?

Head of the Class. Remember that show? A bunch of smart kids and a quirky teacher. Let's see where those geniuses ended up!

Howard Hesseman (Mr. Moore)

Okay, I know Howard Hesseman wasn't a student. But he was Mr. Moore! Sadly, he passed away in 2022. He was a legend on TV.

Gabe Kotter 2.0? (An Unpopular Opinion)

Did anyone else think he was basically Gabe Kotter from Welcome Back, Kotter, but teaching gifted kids? Just me? Okay, moving on...

Must Read

Dan Frischman (Arvid Engen)

Ah, Dan Frischman, the lovable nerd! He was Arvid Engen, the tech wiz. He still acts, does voice work, and even performs as a magician.

Did anyone else think he was secretly cooler than the "cool" kids? I always had a soft spot for Arvid. Unpopular opinion, maybe?

Robin Givens (Darlene Merriman)

Robin Givens played the sophisticated Darlene Merriman. She's had a successful acting career. TV, movies, you name it!

What Happened To The Cast Of Head Of The Class?

She was always so glamorous. Did anyone else secretly want to raid her wardrobe?

Brian Robbins (Eric Mardian)

Brian Robbins was the class clown, Eric Mardian. He is now a big-time Hollywood producer! He's even running Paramount Pictures. Seriously!

From class clown to studio head. Talk about a career change! I bet he still tells jokes in board meetings.

Kimberly Russell (Sarah Nevins)

Kimberly Russell portrayed Sarah Nevins, the aspiring actress. She continued acting for a while. These days, she works as a real estate agent.

She always had that star quality. Remember thinking she looked the most like a real high school student?

Khrystyne Haje (Simone Foster)

Khrystyne Haje was Simone Foster. A lot of people liked her but she left after a few seasons. She continues to act and write. A multi-talented woman!

Was anyone else bummed when she left the show? I thought she had great comedic timing.

Tony O'Dell (Alan Pinkard)

Tony O'Dell played Alan Pinkard. The sweet, conscientious one. He's still acting. He also works as a acting coach.

Alan was the kind of guy you'd want as a friend. Did he always seem like the most well-adjusted of the bunch?

Tannis Vallely (Janice Lazarotto)

Tannis Vallely was Janice Lazarotto. She had a recurring role on the show. It seems she stepped away from acting after that, leading a private life.

I always wondered what happened to her character. Maybe she's a lawyer now, arguing cases in court!

And the Rest...

Many of the other cast members continued acting in various roles. Some stepped away from the spotlight. Wherever they are, we hope they're doing great!
