Character History
Edit
Season 1
Edit
Stephanie Kaye was popular and many of the male students had crushes on her. Her younger brother, Arthur Kobalewsky, started Degrassi as a grade 7, so she ignored him while at school. She started her grade 8 year by reinventing herself with her clothes. She started wearing more revealing clothing, which her best friend, Voula Grivogiannis, did not approve of. Many other female students did not approve, either.

Season 2
Edit
Stephanie started season 2, promising to reinvent herself once more, this time, to get rid of her provocative clothes, and give them to Alexa Pappadopolos-Dexter. She had a crush on new student Simon Dexter, who was a model, but he chose Alexa to be with.

- Stephanie's father is Arthur's father as well, and was portrayed by James Johnston. He is a letter carrier.

Future Degrassi Students Pull A "Stephanie Kaye"
Edit
Long after Steph left Degrassi Junior High, even more students have been doing the same thing she has, with their clothes and choices.
- Manny Santos, who attended Degrassi from 2001–2007, wanted to change her image from cute, to sexy, and she did this by wearing sexy clothes under her normal clothes so she wont get in trouble with her strict father. Thankfully, the thong wearing ended after season 4.
- Alli Bhandari, who is now attending Degrassi from 2007–present, arrives at Degrassi in school appropriate clothes, and then changes into more fashionable clothes. In season 9, she claims she will be wearing more sexy clothing.
- Ashley Kerwin, who attended Degrassi 2001-2006, was embarrassed having her little brother attending the same school as her. She also ran for class president early in the first season just like Stephanie
- Terri MacGreggor, who attended Degrassi 2001 - 2003, got drunk before the dance and embarrassed herself in front of the guy she has a crush on
- Ellie Nash who attended Degrassi 2002-2006 tried to commit suicide when Craig told her his life in L.A. was amazing, and said when she showed up it wasn't so great. The reason for Ellie trying to commit suicide was because she thought she messed up his life because of her crush on him in season 5.
Trivia
Edit
(*Although many Grade 8 first season characters have birthdays in 1974, since Emma Nelson, daughter of one such student, was born in June 1989, and since Grade 8s start at the age of 12 or 13 and finish at 13 or 14, 1974 birthdays should be retconned as 1975.)
- Stephanie was featured on the very first freeze frame in the Degrassi Franchise.
- She also was the first character to be seen in the whole Degrassi series.
- She is also the first and only character to spell out the initial of her true last name and use it as her last name.
