Okay, need help with this high school drama from the late 80s, where one of the students finds out they can time travel. Set in like California, they were trying to balance school life with fixing the past. It wasn't Quantum Leap, but it had a kind of similar vibe. Each episode was pretty self-contained, but there were these threads that ran through the whole series. The main character had help from his science teacher, who was the only one who knew his secret. Ring any bells?

YES! This is so my jam. You're totally describing 'Time's Arrow High'! Man, that show was ahead of its time, no pun intended lol. I loved how each episode had the main character trying to fix some new mess. The fashion was pretty epic too. Totally tubular show!

That's definitely 'Time's Arrow High'. It was short-lived but had a cult following for its unique take on time travel and teen drama. Stacey Keach as Mr. Donovan, the science teacher, was iconic! BTW, the complete series is super hard to find on DVD these days. If you're looking to rewatch, good luck tracking it down!

Whoa, 'Time's Arrow High' is my cult classic! There's an episode where he tries to stop his parents from meeting, classic 'what if' scenario. Still kicking myself for not keeping the VHS recordings. The soundtrack was filled with 80s hits. Can't find a show that mixes drama and sci-fi like that anymore.

Hey, saw your post and got curious so I did some digging. Could it be 'Out of Time High'? Found a fan-run wiki that lists a bunch of old shows with supernatural twists. Seems like it fits what you're describing. Here's hoping it's the right one!

I totally remember staying up to catch episodes of that show! The main dude had this rad skateboard, right? Time's Arrow High...man that takes me back. They don't make shows like that anymore.
Omg, I think I know the show you're talking about... was it that one with the cheesy special effects? Where the main dude could only jump like a few days back? Ugh, what was it called... the title is on the tip of my tongue!
