Quotes
Miss Mullins:
They hate me.
Dewey Finn:
No they don't.
Miss Mullins:
Yes they do, I can see. I wasn't always like this, you know, I wasn't always wound this tight. There was a time where I was fun. I was funny! I was. But you can't be funny and be the principle of a prep school! No, you ...
Goofs

Crazy Credits
The "School Of Rock" band jams throughout the closing credits.
Alternate Versions
In the theatrical version of the film, the performance by School of Rock during the end credits is changed. Originally, after several solos, Dewey tells Katie she does not get one, as bassists don't get solos and that's just how it works. This was changed for the DVD and TV versions: Dewey does not tell Katie that bassists don't get solos and she does not assume she gets one anyhow.
