What to Anticipate in Abbott Elementary Season 4?

Season 4 of Abbott Elementary resumes the storyline from the third season finale. Janine Teagues is engaged in efforts to reform the education system within the Los Angeles School District, leading a new library initiative that earns her a permanent position offer.

Reluctant to embrace this significant career shift, Janine chooses to return to Abbott Elementary to reconnect with familiar faces, such as her romantic interest Gregory Eddy, sixth-grade teacher Jacob, and her straightforward friend, Barbara.

The series had previously teased a “Will They, Won’t They”dynamic between Janine and Gregory, which was highlighted during the season 3 finale at an “End of Year”party that spiraled into chaos, resulting in a long-awaited kiss between the two.

Season 4 is expected to delve deeper into Janine and Gregory’s evolving relationship and the repercussions of Janine’s decision to step back from her position in the district.

Additionally, an exciting crossover episode with It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is in the works, generating considerable excitement among fans of both series following a tease from Rob McElhenney on social media.

Viewers can also look forward to other narrative arcs related to Janine’s departure from the school district, including potential lingering feelings of resentment, exemplified when she receives just $50 for class pet funding after previously seeking financial support for school programs.

Abbott Elementary airs Wednesdays at 9:30 PM ET on ABC, with episodes available for streaming on Hulu.
