Johanna "Jo" Mitchell is the main character and the protagonist in Mean Girls 2. She is portrayed by Meaghan Martin.
Jo is a 17-year-old girl who lives with her father, a builder of race car engines for NASCAR. Because of his tough job, she has changed schools at least three times a year.
Jo is thought to be the sequel version of Cady Heron, the main character from the movie's prequel, Mean Girls. The two have many similarities, but equal amount of differences aswell.
One of the places she has lived is Gates Mills, Ohio. Her mail is still being sent there when she recieves a letter of acceptance from Carnegie Mellon University.
Early Life
Even though Jo's past wasn't deeply explored, in comparison to Cady Heron, early in the movie, we find out that she lost her mother at very young age and has been living with her father ever since. She was never a great student, but even so, she was still ambitious and wanted to one day enroll at the university her mother attended.
Along with her dad, they've had a tough life. They were financially weak, as her father's job wasn't enough to support both of them.
Like mentioned before, she has continously changed schools at least thrice a year, before she finally settled down in the North Shore High School.
