Victor is the protagonist in Seventh Grade. Victor has spent his summer picking grapes to earn money to buy his school clothes. He appears to be a typical Hispanic student and attends school in Fresno, returning for his first day of the seventh grade. Victor's course schedule has seven classes and eight periods in the day. His classes include homeroom, English, math, social studies, lunch, French, metal shop, and biology. Victor speaks English fluently and has mastered the basics of Spanish. He takes French because the girl he likes, Teresa, is also taking French. Teresa is also in his homeroom class. Victor has a close friend, Michael Torres, who he meets for lunch. Victor likes Teresa but is too shy to directly approach her. Most of the students at the school realize that Victor likes Teresa and she clearly knows of his infatuation for her. During a school day, Victor spends time looking for Teresa, wondering how to impress her, and doing some dumb things to try and get her attention. Victor's antics succeed and after French class, Teresa approaches Victor for assistance in doing French homework. Victor is sure that seventh grade is going to be a lot of fun.
