At the season finale event of 'Abbott Elementary' held at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles, creator and star Quinta Brunson expressed her honor and gratitude for the show's ongoing success. She highlighted the collective effort of her cast, crew, and writers over four seasons. The series, inspired by Brunson’s own middle school teacher Ms. Joyce Abbott, emphasizes the positive influence educators can have on students, as reflected in memories shared by audience engagement intern Challynne Luckette, who praised Ms. Abbott's confidence-building techniques and positive affirmations as pivotal in her life.
"I'm so honored. It's wonderful to have people this involved with the show four seasons in. It's not easy to do. It's a testament to my crew, my writers, my cast, my show."
"I've always kind of talked about how I learned the beauty of selling from her. And the beauty of showing up, not being scared. That was all Ms. Abbott."
"Her whole thing was just positive affirmations. She didn't let any of her students feel bad about themselves and that alone, you need that at that age in 6th grade."
