Mr. Lancer is a teacher and vice-principal at Casper High School.

Background[]

Mr. Lancer is a dedicated educator who serves as a teacher and vice-principal at Casper High School. He’s known for his disciplinarian approach and teaches a variety of subjects, including English, Math, History and Science. Mr. Lancer is particularly fond of athletes and is recognized for his strictness towards Danny Fenton and his friends. Over time, he evolves into a more impartial and forgiving figure. Mr. Lancer is an overweight, bald, middle-aged man with green eyes and a goatee. His typical attire consists of a light blue short-sleeved dress shirt paired with a black tie, grey slacks, and black shoes. Throughout the series, Mr. Lancer’s character is portrayed as a devoted educator who takes his job seriously and genuinely cares for his students. Although he initially demonstrates favoritism towards athletes and Jazz, he gradually becomes more equitable and lenient as the series progresses.

Appearance[]

He’s a middle-aged man who is overweight and bald. He has green eyes and a goatee. He’s usually dressed in a light blue short-sleeved dress shirt with a black necktie, gray pants and black shoes.

Personality[]

Mr. Lancer is first portrayed as a disciplinary enforcer within Casper High, but shows favouritism towards the athletes and Jazz while liberally doling out detentions to Danny and his friends.

Later on, he is depicted as a devoted educator who takes his job seriously and cares for his students, but underneath the surface he sees his students' success as a reflection of his own success.[1][2]

Later in the series, he becomes more or less fair and forgiving.[3] Although he is described as an English teacher, Mr. Lancer has appeared teaching a variety of subjects, including astronomy[4], and the blackboard behind him is often covered in various math equations.

He’s portrayed as a bit of a wimp, although he occasionally has moments of bravery, especially when it comes to his students' safety. He often uses the titles of books as exclamations ("Moby-Dick!", "Gulliver's Travels!", "Lord of the Flies!", "War of the Worlds!", etc.)
