Gotta Kick It Up! is a 2002 Disney Channel drama movie. The film is based on a true story of a group of Latina girls from East Los Angeles who join their school's new dance team to help revive the school's struggling spirit. The protagonist, Daisy Salinas (Camille Guaty), is a senior in high school who struggles to find her place in a school that doesn't offer many extracurricular activities for its students. Daisy is invited to attend the first meeting of the new dance team called "The Dancing Barons," which is led by an energetic and enthusiastic new teacher named Ms. Bartlett (Susan Egan). Along with the new teacher, Daisy meets the rest of the ambitious dance team, which includes some of her friends, like Alyssa (America Ferrera) and Marisol (Jhoanna Flores).

The team is formed to compete in a national dance competition, and it's up to Ms. Bartlett and the girls to work together to prepare for the competition. Initially, Daisy and her friends are skeptical about the dance team's prospects, but after witnessing Ms. Bartlett's passion for dance, they become determined to achieve their goal.

Ms. Bartlett, who has to cope with her own insecurities regarding her ability as a dance coach, uses her own experiences to motivate the girls. With her guidance and inspiration, the girls learn to work together as a team and develop new friendships.

Daisy faces a lot of challenges during her senior year, including conflicts with her father, who worked long hours as a truck driver and does not show much interest in her well-being. He also doesn't approve of Daisy's desire to become a dancer, which he sees as a frivolous hobby. In addition to her father's disapproval, Daisy is also dealing with a lack of focus and discipline, which threatens to derail her from achieving her goals.

To make matters worse, the team faces tough competition from other schools, including their rival school's dance team, who has a history of winning the national championship. However, the girls come together and work hard, trying to perfect their routines and bond as a team.

As the competition draws closer, feelings of nervousness, excitement, and pressure all come to a head. Will the girls be able to pull their team together and bring home the national championship? What obstacles will they face along the way? Watch Gotta Kick It Up! to find out.
