The film was shot at Spokane's Rogers High School, referred to as "Thompson High School" in the film. The school building has gone through major renovations since the filming, with the only still recognizable characteristic being the school's front entrance.
Interior cafeteria scenes were filmed at Ferris High School on Spokane's South Hill. Some of the locker room scenes were filmed in the Shadle Park High School boys' locker room.
Madonna's scene was filmed at the Big Foot Tavern on North Division (Mews?) in Spokane.
Other scenes were shot at The Onion Restaurant downtown and the North Central High School gym. The gym today looks much as it did in the movie.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“[T]he asphaltum contains an exactly requisite amount of sulphides for production of rubber tires. This brown material also contains “ichthyol,” a medicinal preparation used externally, in Webster’s clarifying phrase, “as an alterant and discutient.””
—State of Utah, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“... this dream that men shall cease to waste strength in competition and shall come to pool their powers of production is coming to pass all over the earth.”
—Jane Addams (1860–1935)
“Constant revolutionizing of production ... distinguish the bourgeois epoch from all earlier ones. All fixed, fast-frozen relations, with their train of ancient and venerable prejudices are swept away, all new-formed ones become antiquated before they can ossify. All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses, his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
