The highly acclaimed ABC sitcom, Abbott Elementary, returned for its third season with a major shakeup for its lead character, Janine Teagues, played by Quinta Brunson. In the season premiere, Janine finds herself stepping outside of the familiar classroom setting and delving into the world of the Philadelphia school district.
Co-showrunner Patrick Schumacker reveals that this season will focus heavily on the district, allowing viewers to explore a different side of the educational system. Janine's encounters with the bureaucracy in the district will serve as a counterpoint to the challenges she faces at Abbott Elementary.
