Jason Winkler

Jason Winkler is the new teacher at the boarding school. He is the replacement for the old History teacher. Mr. Winkler not only teaches History, he also teaches drama and eventually sets up a school play. At first, he tried to help Patricia find Joy, but then turned to the Dark Side and joins The Secret Society because he has a life threatening disease. He was the only one who believed Patricia when she said something bad happened to Joy and offered to help her. Later, Mr. Winkler found Joy's cell phone on the streets by the school by the trash cans. He was concerned about Patricia, so he went to Mrs. Andrews to get some information about the disappearance of Joy. However, Mrs. Andrews was interrupted by Mick, who needed to talk to her. He later visited Mr. Sweet's office and was initially told that he would be better off not knowing about Joy, but is then told to talk to Victor. After he had a talk with Victor, he was most likely in on the Joy secret and greatly changed. He tried to help Patricia throughout some of the episodes.

Despite this change in behavior, Mr. Winkler is not evil, as he is still shown to be caring towards the students. An example would be when he brought Jerome Clarke and Alfie's scam on the lower grades to light and when he was willing to endorse Amber's storyline for the play. Also the fact that in the Season One finale he tries his hardest to get Victor to help the kids when they are held captive in a classroom by Rufus Zeno. However, he does avoid Patricia and doesn't talk with many other people. He also has a degenerative illness that can cause him to die prematurely, which is probably why he joined the Secret Society. He might die an early death without the Elixir of Life, the Cup of Ankh or immortality. In the season finale he was supposed to be Mrs. Robins on's date, but couldn't because Rufus threatened the kids lives and becau

se of the Secret Society.
