Alexandra "Alex" Nuñez (b. 1988 in Toronto, Canada) is a Canadian woman who attended Degrassi Community School in Toronto. She graduated in 2006 and moved to Ajax in 2007. She was originally known as a "bad girl" and had once been a stripper at a bar in order to make ends meet, but as years went by, she began to have more common sense and make better decisions. She is good friends with Jay Hogart, Marco Del Rossi, Ellie Nash and Sean Cameron. She was enemies with Emma Nelson. Alex was portrayed by Deanna Casaluce.
Originally, Alex was the stereotypical 'bad girl' of Degrassi. She was a troublemaker, came from an awful home life, and was generally considered to be an outcast.
As the series progressed, she gained more depth and lost most of her bad girl persona, even becoming one of the 'popular' students. In season five, it was revealed that Alex was a lesbian.

James Tiberius "J.T." Yorke (c. 1989-2006) was a senior (Grade 12) at Degrassi Community School at the time of his death. Throughout his years of attending Degrassi, he was ultimately known as the class clown, due to his great sense of humor. He was the kind of kid everyone knew and loved, and he could light up a room with his presence. Despite his comedic ways, J.T. had to undergo numerous obstacles such as dealing drugs and putting his baby up for adoption.
J.T. was best friends with Toby Isaacs. He was also good friends with Emma Nelson, Manny Santos, Liberty Van Zandt, Sean Cameron, Danny Van Zandt, Derek Haig, and Paige Michalchuk. He had conflicts with Spinner Mason and Jay Hogart, but was on good terms with both of them at the time of his death. He was in love with Liberty Van Zandt. His life was cut short at only seventeen years old, as he was stabbed and killed outside of Emma's house during Liberty's 17th birthday party by Drake Lempkey, a very drunk Lakehurst Secondary School student. He was portrayed by Ryan Cooley.

Mia Elizabeth Jones is a model that attended Degrassi Community School until moving to Paris, France to focus on her modeling career. She joined the cast as a recurring character during season 6, and was later made a regular during seasons 7-8. She was an 11th grader in the 8th season, placing her in the same class - the Class of 2011 - as Holly J. Sinclair and Anya MacPherson.
Mia was good friends with Manny Santos, Chantay Black, Anya MacPherson, Sav Bhandari, Danny Van Zandt, and Jane Vaughn. She was frenemies with Holly J. Sinclair, and rivals with Darcy Edwards and Liberty Van Zandt, though she made amends with Liberty. When Mia was 13, she gave birth to her daughter, Isabella, whose father is Lucas, an older student who attended Lakehurst. She left Degrassi in January 2008 to become a full-time model in Paris, inevitably ending her relationship with Peter. She was portrayed by Nina Dobrev.
Declan Coyne is a former student at Degrassi Community School, who made his first appearance in Season 9's premiere Just Can't Get Enough. He is a calm, conceited, and a self-described child nomad, having traveled to four different continents with his father who is a diplomat, his mother, and his fraternal twin sister, Fiona Coyne, of whom he is very protective, which sometimes causes family feuds. His swift and sometimes deceiving acts could come off as arrogant. He has graduated from Vanderbilt Prep, and now is a sophomore at Yale, along with Holly J. Sinclair. He was also friends with Jane Vaughn. He was portrayed by Landon Liboiron.
In Just Can't Get Enough, Declan and his twin sister Fiona are seen at Degrassi for their first day at their new school and Chantay introduces them to Peter and Mia. Declan invites them to a party his parents are having and they accept. When Peter and Mia show up to the party, Declan tells Peter to perform one of his songs in front of everyone, knowing that he would embarrass himself. Declan then introduces Peter to his drug-addicted cousin, Victoria. When Mia realizes there's something wrong with Peter she asks Declan if there's drugs going around and Declan tells her that Peter probably got drugs from Victoria, his cousin. Later, in school Declan shows Peter before and after pictures of people who became addicted to meth and Peter swears he'll never do meth again.
