"Stick to the Status Quo" is performed by the students of East High after it is discovered that Troy auditioned for the winter musicale. It is a song about students throughout the school breaking free from their stereotypes to pursue passions deemed unacceptable by the school's social order. An extensive dance sequence is weaved into this Broadway-esque number.
